Game
Wheelchair tennis follows the rules of able-bodied tennis with one major exception: the ball may bounce twice before the player must hit it back.
Athletes are divided into two categories: the ‘Open’ class is for athletes who have one or both legs permanently disabled but arms that function normally, and the ‘Quad’ class is for athletes who have additional restrictions to their playing arm, which limits the ability to handle a racket and propel a wheelchair.
