HISTORY OF TENNIS

Evidence on the ground is thin, but it is believed that tennis matches date back thousands of years, with some indicators suggesting that ancient Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans served as pioneers in tennis. For example, the Arabic word for palm is a racket similar to the word racket, while the Egyptian town of Tinnis is again similar to tennis. More substantial evidence comes from around 1000, when French monks began playing crude courtyard ball. The sport, which is played against the walls of their monastery or on a rope hanging in the courtyard, came to be named je de faume Game of Hands According to the theory, the word 'tennis' was coined by the monks shouting the word tenez in French when they attended a ball. In the next few centuries, games became exponentially popular, and were adopted by aristocrats across Europe beyond the walls of monasteries. According to some records, there were 1,800 indoor courts by the 13th century. In fact, the game became so popular that not only Louis IV but also some church members, including the Pope, tried to ban it, but it didn't work. As tennis became more popular, it also evolved more. The courtyard playground began to be converted into an indoor court, and the ball, which was initially wood, gave way to a leather certified bouncer filled with cellulose material. In the early days, they used their hands to play, but over time, people began to wear gloves with bands or hard paddle between their fingers, and eventually a band was attached to the handle, the forerunner of the racket. By 1500, a wood frame racket with sheep's internal organs was commonly used with a cork ball weighing about 3 ounces. However, despite all this innovation, the game of court or real tennis was vastly different from the global sport that we now know as tennis. The game was played on a narrow indoor court, and the ball was played on a gallery with grooves and a wall with several holes. The players scored by hitting the ball through the net window under the lube, which was five feet at the end of the net and three feet at the center, which created a distinct sagging. The popularity of the game declined during the 1700s, but experienced another revolution in 1850 Charles Goodyear invented a process for rubber called vulcanization, which made materials that made tennis balls much more vibrant. As a result, tennis can now be played outdoors on the grass. The foundation of modern tennis was laid. A few decades later, Major Walter C. 1874 in London. Wingfield patented the rules and equipment for the game he called Spaheristique, a Greek word for ball play. Wingfield's coat looked like a sandglass and was much shorter than a modern coat. His rules have been criticised and amended, but their impact cannot be underestimated In 1874 the first court appeared in the United States a year later the equipment set was sold for use in China, India, Russia and Canada. The universality of croquet at the time meant that a smooth outdoor court was in place, and proved that it was easy to adapt to tennis. In fact, the marriage between Crockett and tennis was solidified in 1887 when All England Club Crockett decided to hold its first Wimbledon tennis tournament. The OC abandoned Whigfield's odd-shaped coat and chose a rectangular coat instead, introducing a set of rules that are essentially the game of the day. Initially held to raise funds to repair broken rollers in private clubs, the event soon developed into the most prestigious tennis event in the world. The club quickly changed its name to All England Croquet and Ron Tennis Club. 토토

During the first year of the Wimbledon tournament, it consisted only of men's singles women were not allowed to play until 1884. The players were also criticized for wearing hats and ties and shoes without heels. I put the serve under my arm and sewed the tennis ball by hand. The Championship was also held at a private club located a short distance from warple street and did not move to its current location on church road until 1922. These problems aside, Wimbledon and tennis have not undergone much change since this first tournament. With the introduction of tiebreak rules in 1971 being the only major change, the rules remained virtually the same. In 1926, as Charles Pyle recognized the commercial possibilities of promoting tennis and introducing professional tours, tennis is now not only one of the most widely practiced sports in the world, but also one of the most profitable.
