The serve is the most important stroke in tennis. A good player can serve the ball to any spot on the service court. A ball can also be made to bounce in different ways when it hits the ground. This is done by turning the racket in the hand and putting a spin on the ball when it is struck by the racket. A perfect serve is called an ace. This happens when a serve is so well placed or is hit so hard that it is impossible for the receiver to return the ball. A let is a serve that strikes the top of the net before landing in the proper service court. Because the normal flight of the ball has been interrupted, the receiver has virtually no chance to get to the ball.
