Why do players switch sides after every serve?

Answer 1

Makes the game more fair; for example, if the sun is setting, the person facing the west has an unfair disadvantage, but if they switch sides, the other person has to deal with the same problem.

Answer 2

They Don't switch after each serve!!
They switch after the 1st game and every 2 games after that, so they switch on every odd number of games for all the reasons the other people said above...

Answer 3

It is not after every serve, it is after every three serves and when tit is an odd number of games for example in the first, third, firth, seventh, ninth etc. n the first game you only change side, in the rest you can relax and sit, for a think 60 seconds, changes are also because of the position of the sun, same opportunities or chances for every player.

Answer 4

It's not after every serve, you only switch when the score adds up to an odd number.

It's just a rule, I guess.
