Phraséologie connexe : entraîner l'adversaire à l'extérieur du court, contraindre quelqu'un à un déplacement, coup d'attaque, coup de débordement/dépassement (=le passing-shot), mettre quelqu'un sous pression, mettre en difficulté, contre-attaquer, être (complètement) sorti du terrain.Une des expressions hyperboliques et favorites des joueurs de tennis, surtout en Europe, est «Je l'ai laissé à dix mètres», c'est-à-dire laisser la balle hors de son atteinte.  2, record 1, French, - d%C3%A9border
