Tennis is a sport played between two players (singles) or between two teams of two players each (doubles). Each player uses a strung racket to strike a hollow rubber ball covered with felt over a net into the opponent’s court. The modern game of tennis was born in the United Kingdom in the late 19th century. Then it was called “lawn tennis”. Tennis soon became popular among the upper- class English-speaking population. Then it began to be played around the world. Tennis is an Olympic sport and is played at all levels of society at all ages. The sport can be played by anyone who can hold a racket, including people in wheelchairs. Tennis is a major spectator sport, especially the four Grand Slam tournaments: the Australian Open, the French Open, Wimbledon and the US Open. These tournaments are considered to be the most Prestigious tennis tournaments in the world. They are held annually. Apart from the Olympic Games, Davis Cup, Fed Cup and Hopman Cup they are the only tournaments regulated by the International Tennis Federation (ITF). These events possess historical significance and also carry huge prize funds. Grand Slam men’s tournaments have best-of-five set matches throughout. At present, the Grand Slam tournaments are the only tour events that have mixed doubles contests. Grand Slam tournaments are held in conjunction with wheelchair tennis tournaments. The exception is Wimbledon, (where the grass surface doesn’t allow this) and junior tennis competitions. Grand Slam tournaments are often seen as the culmination of a particular season, such as the US Open Series. Wimbledon players are required to wear predominantly white. Tennis is a very interesting sport. This is because playing tennis is really cool, and it needs many high-toned skills. Most of all, it only requires two persons to play. Playing tennis is really elegant. The gesture of playing tennis was so beautiful that it attracted my attention.Tennis is a popular sport. It's not like volleyball or baseball which needs to scratch a team. When we want to play it, we just need to find one person to play with me. It’s a very convenient sport. We can play it only with any another person. It is the last reason why tennis becomes my favorite sport.In sum, tennis is not only easy to play but also an elegant sport that requires skills. |
