Introduction
Tennis can be an individual (singles) or team (doubles) sport played on a court with a net dividing it into equal parts. The objective of the game is to score by striking a hollow ball covered with felt over the net into the opponent's side of the court with a tennis racket so that the opponent is not able to play a valid return.
Tennis was first played in Birmingham, England in the 18th Century, and spread quickly to English-speaking countries. It appeared as an Olympic sport in the late 1900s, but withdrew from the Olympics after disagreements in the rules in the 1924 Games; it was reintroduced as a full medal sport in the 1988 Seoul Summer Olympics.
