A few of the words

KICK
A kick serve bounces high and kicks away from the returner, it's a favorite second-serve weapon because topspin makes it harder to attack than a flat bullet.Find this word in the grid to read its note.
FAULT
Two faults in a row hand the point to the opponent, so even big servers dial back the risk on second serves, trading some pace for more spin and margin.Find this word in the grid to read its note.
DEUCE
When an ace clinches a deuce game, it resolves one of the most pressure-packed moments in tennis: both players level at 40–40, and a single clean serve can tilt it.Find this word in the grid to read its note.
TOSS
The ball toss is a server's tell, a toss positioned slightly behind the head often signals a kick serve, while one out in front tends to mean flat-out pace.Find this word in the grid to read its note.

tennis ace word search

The Ace: a free online word search

Tennis ace word search, free to play online. TOPSPIN is in there, and DEUCE, the two moments a point either ends gloriously or resets entirely.

About The Ace

An ace is the purest shot in tennis, a serve so well-placed or so fast that the returner never gets a racket on it. Players hunt the corners, vary the spin, and disguise the toss to keep opponents guessing. At the professional level, a well-timed ace can flip the momentum of an entire match in under a second.

How to play

  1. 1
    Find a word.Tap its first letter, then tap along to its last. The trail fills in and finishes itself when it spells a word. Or press the first letter and drag.
  2. 2
    Words run in straight lines.Across and down, and on the harder difficulties diagonally and backwards.
  3. 3
    It marks itself.Each word you find takes on its own soft colour on the grid and is crossed off the list.
  4. 4
    Choose a difficulty.Relaxed, Classic or Challenging set those directions and how much the word list helps, never the grid size. Tap the A buttons at the top to enlarge the letters, or pinch the grid.
