Two young tennis players in northwest Italy are staying sharp despite coronavirus lockdowns by playing each day on their rooftops and hitting balls across the street in wildly impressive rallies. Vittoria, a 13-year-old, and Carola, an 11-year-old, are neighbors in Liguria, Italy, and though they haven’t been able to meet at a local court, they figured out an amazing way to keep playing.
With a railing serving as a net and multiple obstacles in the way, the two players somehow managed to keep a rally going and avoid losing the ball.
