Tennis Pro
Top-down tennis with real scoring: aim with the arrows while you swing, pick flat, topspin or slice, and beat four escalating opponents for the title.
The game's own interface may still be in English.
Overview
Tennis Pro is a top-down tennis tournament with real scoring and three genuinely different shots. You patrol the near baseline of a hard court against four opponents — Vera Lob, Sam Baseline, Mara Slice and Kai Ace — each quicker and cleaner than the last. Points run 15-30-40 with deuce and advantage, games need a two-game margin to four, and serve alternates every game with proper diagonal service boxes and double faults. The ball flies on a true arc: flat shots skim the net at pace, topspin climbs and dips, and the slice floats low and dies short. You aim by holding a direction through the swing, so every return is a small tactical decision. Win four matches and you lift the trophy; your career title count persists between visits.
How to Play
Click Start Tournament. Move with the arrow keys — Up and Down matter as much as Left and Right, because a ball taken early near the net arrives back faster. Press Space for flat, X for topspin, Z for slice, and hold Left or Right at the same time to aim wide. Swing when the ball drops into the strike zone: too early or late and the spread widens. On your serve, any shot key hits the toss; flat serves are fastest but flirt with the tape, topspin serves are the safe second serve. Watch the bounce: slice bounces barely at all, so a slice that beats you low usually beats you because you were standing too far back. P pauses, R restarts the tournament.
Tips & Strategy
Build every rally around topspin and finish with flat. Topspin's tight spread lets you camp three feet inside the baseline and move the opponent corner to corner without donating errors; once they reply short, step in and go flat down the line. The slice is a change-up, not a weapon — use it when you are stretched wide, because its slow float buys you recovery time, and its skid forces the AI to generate its own pace, which is where its errors live. Against Mara Slice and Kai Ace, stop aiming for the sidelines: a flat miss is a donation, while a heavy topspin to the body jams anyone. On serve, take pace off the second serve — a double fault hands over the exact cheap points you are trying to starve. And on return, stand two steps inside the baseline against big servers; the extra reaction distance matters more than the angle you give up.

Frequently asked questions
How do I aim my shots in Tennis Pro?
Hold Left or Right while pressing a shot key. The further you lean into the direction, the wider the ball lands; combining aim with your court position pulls opponents off the court.
What is the difference between the three shots?
Flat is fast with a low arc and the widest miss spread. Topspin flies highest but is the most accurate and kicks forward off the bounce. Slice travels slowest, bounces low and lands short, dragging opponents to the net.
How does serving work?
When it is your serve, press any shot key as the toss rises. Serves must land in the diagonal service box; miss twice and it is a double fault. The key you press sets the serve's pace and arc.
What scoring does the game use?
Real tennis scoring: 15, 30, 40, deuce and advantage. You need four games with a two-game margin to take the match, and four match wins to lift the trophy.
