Origin and early years

There has been much dispute over the invention of modern tennis, but the officially recognized centennial of 😗 the game in 1973 commemorated its introduction by Major Walter Clopton Wingfield in 1873.

He published the first book of rules 😗 that year and took out a patent on his game in 1874, although historians have concluded that similar games were 😗 played earlier and that the first tennis club was established by the Englishman Harry Gem and several associates in Leamington 😗 in 1872.

Wingfield's court was of the hourglass shape and may have developed from badminton.

The hourglass shape, stipulated by Wingfield in 😗 his booklet "Sphairistiké, or Lawn Tennis," may have been adopted for patent reasons since it distinguished the court from ordinary 😗 rectangular courts.

At the time, the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) was the governing body of real tennis, whose rules it had 😗 recently revised.After J.M.

Heathcote, a distinguished real tennis player, developed a better tennis ball of rubber covered with white flannel, the 😗 MCC in 1875 established a new, standardized set of rules for tennis.

Meanwhile, the game had spread to the United States 😗 in the 1870s.

Mary Outerbridge of New York has been credited with bringing a set of rackets and balls to her 😗 brother, a director of the Staten Island Cricket and Baseball Club.

But research has shown that William Appleton of Nahant, Massachusetts, 😗 may have owned the first lawn tennis set and that his friends James Dwight and Fred R.

Sears popularized the game.

An 😗 important milestone in the history of tennis was the decision of the All England Croquet Club to set aside one 😗 of its lawns at Wimbledon for tennis, which soon proved so popular that the club changed its name to the 😗 All England Croquet and Lawn Tennis Club.

In 1877 the club decided to hold a tennis championship, and a championship subcommittee 😗 of three was appointed.

It decided on a rectangular court 78 feet (23.

8 metres) long by 27 feet (8.2 metres) wide.

They 😗 adapted the real tennis method of scoring-15, 30, 40, game-and allowed the server one fault (i.e.

, two chances to deliver 😗 a proper service on each point).

These major decisions remain part of the modern rules.

Twenty-two entries were received, and the first 😗 winner of the Wimbledon Championships was Spencer Gore.

In 1878 the Scottish Championships were held, followed in 1879 by the Irish 😗 Championships.

There were several alterations in some of the other rules (e.g.

, governing the height of the net) until 1880, when 😗 the All England Club and the MCC published revised rules that approximate very closely those still in use.

The All England 😗 Club was the dominant authority then, the British Lawn Tennis Association (LTA) not being formed until 1888.

In 1880 the first 😗 U.S.

championship was held at the Staten Island Cricket and Baseball Club.

The victor was an Englishman, O.E.Woodhouse.

The popularity of the game 😗 in the United States and frequent doubts about the rules led to the foundation in 1881 of the U.S.

National Lawn 😗 Tennis Association, later renamed the U.S.

Lawn Tennis Association and, in 1975, the U.S.

Tennis Association (USTA).

Under its auspices, the first official 😗 U.S.

national championship, played under English rules, was held in 1881 at the Newport Casino, Newport, Rhode Island.

The winner, Richard Sears, 😗 was U.S.

champion for seven consecutive years.

Tennis had taken firm root in Australia by 1880, and the first Australian Championships were 😗 played in 1905.

The first national championships in New Zealand were held in 1886.

In 1904 the Lawn Tennis Association of Australasia 😗 (later of Australia) was founded.

The first French Championships were held at the Stade Français in 1891, but it was an 😗 interclub tournament that did not become truly international until 1925; the French Federation of Lawn Tennis was established in 1920.

Other 😗 national championships were inaugurated in Canada (1890), South Africa (1891), Spain (1910), Denmark (1921), Egypt (1925), Italy (1930), and Sweden 😗 (1936).

In 1884 a women's championship was introduced at Wimbledon, and women's national championships were held in the United States starting 😗 in 1887.
