What is a "ground stroke"?
A ground stroke is a type of shot in tennis where the ball is hit after it bounces on the ground. The player strikes the ball with a racket either forehand or backhand, depending on their stance. Ground strokes are often used in rallies, where players exchange shots from the baseline. This type of shot is key to most strategies in tennis, as it allows the player to control the game and move the opponent around the court. Ground strokes are typically hit with more power and consistency than other types of shots.
