why do tennis players make noises when they hit the ball?

Breathing is very important in tennis.  If your breathing is improper it could result in faster fatigue and lazy feet.  Learning to exhale on queue and maintaing a rhythmic breathing pattern for the intensity of the workout can help you maintain the energy needed to stay fresh longer into the match.  This means your opponents mechanics will breakdown first because he will get tired before you, sometimes due just to proper breathing.

It is your point.  The one complication is that  it is the only time your opponent can reach over the net to touch the ball.  He has to hit it on the fly however once it bounces on your side it is your point.

It is if you have a good hand-eye coordination. I love tennis! After you practice, it's really fun! But, don't just think you have to just hit the ball. It's not that easy.

They're professionals doing their job. You should be looking at their racquet hands, nowhere else!\n\nAnyway, what should they do about it?

The container is sealed because the air inside is PRESSURIZED (not vacuum sealed as another proposes).Tennis balls are pressurized on the inside to give them the right amount of bounce.  Over time, air leaks out of the rubber surface, causing the ball to lose pressure and become flat.  So, the container is also pressurized to keep the balls from becoming flat over time before you even use them!

This truly cannot be answered meaningfully. It depends on who is playing and for what purpose. Among the things that matter are the type of surface (clay, hard, grass), whether you want privacy or an audience, whether you need extra running room behind the baseline, the amount of background noise (both visual and auditory).\nFor example, the grandslam court at the U.S. Open (Flushing Meadows) is tremendous for producing exciting matches, with crowds that are close to the action. For a spectator, this is great--for the higher seed, it usually isn't so hot. \nFor a player, the Stadium Court is hard to beat at Flushing Meadow. When the stadium is filled, players can feel the audience presence, and they also have room to run after nearly all balls, and the surface and net are taken care of expertly.\nFor a more casual, non-professional match, I would prefer any number of courts at clubs and parks around the country, especially ones that allow spectators to watch without distracting. My favorite court of all time is located within a few feet of a cafeteria, with people sitting inside and watching, and with nearby seating as well. This promotes a sense of community as well as the occasional light-hearted barb, but all of it makes for an enjoyable tennis experience. So, it's not just about the courts, but about the total tennis environment.

They are possibly animated GIFs - a type of file which can contain a number of images which show in turn in the same place, giving the illusion of movement.\n\nThere are a number of software packages which can create animated gifs.  It's not really difficult and there is even free software which will help you make them.\n\nIn Yahoo Messenger and MSN Messenger, they are just as described above (MSN uses some other kind of file type, though).\n\nErrr ... What has this to do with TENNIS????

Racketball is like tennis and it varies from countries.

Boxers are trained to exhale when throwing punches and that's the noise you're hearing. They do this to ensure that the moment they throw the punch they are "tension free". This adds speed and snap to the punch.

My husband was playing racket ball with a guy, who slammed the ball into the front wall only to have it come back and hit himself in the balls.  Have you ever saw the velocity on a racket ball?

Oh please, just watch them, when they go to hit someone, they stomp they'er foot down. Under them is like a tin floor or something like that, that makes a lot of noise. I use to believe that crap too. I haven't watched it since a friends aunt, who was married to one of those guys, told me how fake it was.

It sounds like either little blisters or callouses are forming. Callouses can be front some repetitive action like palying the guitar.

I dont know. I guess it's the sound followed by a foul smell. And if your in a crowd and someone dropped the bomb, they usually smile and try to pin it on someone else. That makes it even funnier.

They like the ball in their court all the time. They don't like to be hurt either. They put on a protective coat hence the game playing and antics. Also, when they find the right girl they won't do this. Maybe you haven't found the right guy!
