Tennis has recently gained popularity among people due to its enormous benefits. The tennis game was earlier known as Lawn Tennis. It originated in France in the 11th century as ‘’Jeu De Paume”. Later re-designed in England around the 1870s. Ever since then, it has taken by storm to the corners of the world.
Modern-day tennis is founded by none other than Major Walton Clopton Wingfield. “Book of Rules” was published by him. This book introduced the redesigned tennis game and rules for its beginners.
