Have you ever thought of playing tennis in the pool? Miami's first floating padel court has made that idea a reality because why not make your backhand a splash? The internet users are raving about it. Funny reactions are rolling all over the internet.

Yntegra Group unveiled Miami's first floating padel court off Fisher Island under the direction of CEO Felipe MacLean, and internet users are raving about it.

Daily Loud took to their X handle and shared the video of this floating tennis court in Miami. In the short clip, we can see a tennis court floating on water with glass walls that provide 360-degree views of the area. Two boats, one in front and one behind, chased the court like VIP bodyguards at an upscale tennis tournament, adding to the show.

After the video went viral, the internet was flooded with amusing responses. The concept of playing lawn tennis on water was difficult for many people to comprehend.

Some imagined it as a new sport - 'water tennis', while others made jokes about the never-ending battle to retrieve balls from the water. As netizens imagined the humorous mayhem that might occur on a floating court, the concept swiftly gained popularity as a kind of entertainment.

Hits one welp.. that’s one in the river. hits another. welp.. that’s another in the river. Hey we’re out of tennis balls!”

According to a user a tennis match wouldn't be complete without the extra thrill of maybe drowning, a user noted. The 'game, set, and splash' seem to be the real thrill!

"Because what's a tennis match without the added thrill of possibly drowning? Game, set, splash!"
