This. I immediately thought green, which is what I voted, but I actually have no idea now. Can they not be both?

If you go to the tennis ball wiki page, it shows a picture of a standard yellow tennis ball, but to me it looks green. I always thought they were green. My eyes must not work properly.

A luminous greeny yellow I always thought, it's not a typical yellow, the shading is off and tinted green. Atleast that's what I've always thought. Unless you buy "bouncing tennis balls" - yellow or "tennis balls for dogs" they come in all ranges of shades but otherwise what I said first.

Even though I know the balls are considered to be "yellow", my eyes see them as a light neon green. Maybe it's the fuzz that alters it, I'm not sure.

Green at the start...yellow once they've got old and have been out in the sun for a long time! Brown when you fish them out of the mud.



We can get through this, I promise you.

In professional tournaments they are yellow

But on the wikipedia page notice how the word 'yellow' under the image is in quotation marks. Veery suspicious.
