Is tennis hard for beginners?

The problem is that its not that fun until you can get some groundstrokes over the net with someone who knows how to play. Instructors usually say the best people to play with are those slightly better than you. One thing that helped me when I was starting was access to a ball machine. Unlike someone who may also be a beginner and who is more likely to hit all over the place, a ball machine can give you ground strokes with enough pace on them so hitting them back is good. Some tennis instructors, most clubs and a few people have them, I used to have a professional Prince machine that I got for $100 ( similar are about $1,000 retail). If you have the means to get one check to make sure the courts you plan to use it are lit. If they have lights then they usually have an outlet accessible for a ball machine

I tried volleyball one time and I thought it was pretty hard, I can't imagine tennis, not only are you hitting it with something else besides your hands but the ball is like 6 times smaller

Tennis can be tricky at first, but with practice, it becomes incredibly rewarding! Starting with basics like grip and footwork is key. As a beginner, focus on having fun and improving step by step. Joining a tennis class or finding a partner can make learning more enjoyable. Remember, every pro was once a beginner too! Keep practicing, and soon you'll see your skills grow!

As a professional and famous tennis player, I answer, no.

What is and isn't hard is subjective

If it was easy, everyone would do it
