Tennis balls are porous, and will allow water to seep in. The water adds too much weight to the tennis ball, causing it to be too heavy to bounce, in addition to ruining the outer surface of the tennis ball.

a wet tennis ball doesn't bounce as high, so the dry one will bounce higher
no actually wet balls bounce lower and they spray water all around.
Wet, because in has more weight on it. If a tennis ball is wet it can't bounce it just falls and stays on the ground.
A soaking tennis ball won't bounce high because it has become water-logged
The dry tennis ball will bounce higher, if you use the same amount of force, the wet tennis ball will slide a bit when it hits the ground and bounce lower. In short, the weight of the water will make the tennis ball heavier, with the weight of the water keeping it from bouncing as high.

A wet tennis ball is a ruined tennis ball. It does not bounce as high. You can dry a tennis ball quickly by hitting it against a chain-link fence repidly for a little while. Once the ball is dry, then you can use it again.
when tennis balls get wet they get heavy and the bigger it is the less bounce.
It depends on the quality and conditions of the tennis ball. If the ball is used frequently, in the rain, or if it got wet, it could wear out in a few days.
Yes it does, the water accumulates in the ball, which causes it to get heavier and therefore doesn't bounce as high as a normal tennis ball. The ball also tends to slide on the courts when the ball hits the surface when hit with pace.
The outer cover is porous and absorbs water. Being that the tennis ball is also hollow inside, the water adds more weight to the ball and thus reduces its ability to effectively bounce.
