lob
This term describes a specific trajectory characterized by a steep ascent and a nearly vertical descent. It is most frequently encountered in sports like tennis, squash, or cricket, where the goal is to send the ball deep into the opponent's court to force them back or to bypass them entirely.
As a noun, the word refers to the action or the resulting flight of the ball. While it is a countable noun, it is often used in the context of a single strategic move during a game.
