It's true that tennis requires more strength and it gets more time to finish a game but, in the other hand, paddle is much faster and it has its own technique too.
First, there are many aspects that they have in common, that's true ( They're both played with a racquet, with a small green ball, they have two sides with a net in the middle...)
However, there are some differences between those characteristics:
For example, tennis courts are much longer than paddle's ones, and they dont have walls and a fence, as paddle does. The racquets are so much different too, paddle racquets are shorter, with some gaps inside and tennis racquets are large, with some intertwined threads, with a metal ellipse around and the main difference with the balls is that paddle's balls are heavier than tennis' balls.
To sum up,although tennis is played all around the world, i would choose paddle as the best racquet sport, because it's always played between four players ( two by team ) and it's more funny from my point of view.
