tennis partner
Shares the court
A tennis partner is someone you play tennis with regularly, either as a doubles teammate or as a preferred opponent for practice and singles matches.
The term implies an ongoing arrangement rather than a one-time game: I'm meeting my tennis partner at the courts at six.
Finding a compatible tennis partner—someone at your skill level with a matching schedule—can be surprisingly difficult.
