Summary: Tennis originated in Europe in the late 1800's, and spread quickly throughout the English speaking world, particularly among the wealthy. It is now an Olympic sport and is played by people in many countries and social classes. Played on a flat court made of grass, clay or concrete, tennis players use a stringed rackets to pass a rubber, felt-covered ball back and forth over a net. The rules of tennis and the basic techniques of the players have remained relatively unchanged since the beginning of the game.

Tennis is a game of angles, speed, and endurance. Sometimes the winner is not determined by who moves the fastest, however, but who moves in the most efficient ways. The quality of a tennis player's agility results in quality shots and more matches won.
