I just did a color dropper on the picture for example. The issue is that green is very broad on the spectrum so you can see hints of green in a lot of things, but yellow is much smaller in the color band. Sorry for the really boring answer.

Neon green people need glasses. This is not a tennis ball color:

Maybe not exactly Neon Green.. but certainly not Yellow. Some shade of green.

That would be a better poll. More yellow or more green

Apparently people perceive it differently. Smart people see green while deranged

Don’t try to confuse the issue with facts!!!

the director of the color institute in the linked article said that’s not an accurate way to measure

That isn't an accurate way to measure perception, but it absolutely

Flourescent yellow, but yellow nonetheless.

For those that say they’re green...officially they aren’t.

Funny they show clearly bright green balls while saying yellow.

Given you already think they’re green, it’s not surprising that you’d think that.

Put a tennis ball next to a lemon or a Banana then try to justify that they are

Put one next to a lime or brocolli and try the same

Pretty close to a light green lime.
