What does it mean “to maintain depth in service” in tennis?

How is the depth in service determined?

The depth in service means the length of the projection onto the court of the ball trajectory. A deep serve is the transfer of the ball under the back line. This technical element comes with a serious risk of being out of bounds.

A deep shot is a heavy technical element that poses a rather serious task for the opponent. Such a ball is difficult to handle. It is even more difficult to respond with an aggressive offensive action.

The depth of the ball flight can be different. Short shots land near the net or into the service squares. Medium depth shots – to the central sector of the court. Taking the ball to the center of the court is considered a very unfortunate action. Such shots are very convenient for processing and dangerous counterattacks.
