Tennis has a great tradition in the United States. The U.S. has won the legendary Davis Cup more than any country in the world. In addition, the United States is the home of Andre Agassi, Michael Chang, Pete Sampras and many other champions in the recent years. But tennis does not get enough attention in the United States these days. Davis Cup gets minimal coverage on TV, and the coverage of major tournaments such as the Masters Series has been significantly less than previous years. So why is it that a tennis rich country such as the U.S. does not pay enough attention to the “beautiful game.” Tennis fans in the U.S. have been spoiled by the wealth of titles won by U.S. players in the past decade. The days of Agassi, Sampras, Courier, and Chang are extraordinary, and it would be unreasonable to expect the current crop of players to emulate what has been done by the legends of the past. The U.S. fans are patriotic and they tend to pay attention to sports that Americans are dominating. …

S. Opens in a row as he has … in this day of top competition and top pressure, a stupendous feat. He doesn’t have the best serve in the game, the best backhand, the best forehand, the best speed, the most power, etc. But he’s so good in all these categories … with no weaknesses … and coupled with his impassive demeanor, there’s never been a better all-around player. The coming year, with superbly talented guys in the top four, and all four capable of beating each other, and with Federer gunning to tie Pete Sampras’ record of 14 Slam titles, promises to be the best ever. The numbers in parentheses stand for Grand Slam titles won and runnersup. 1. Roger Federer (13,4). No other modern player has excelled on all three surfaces as Federer has, participating in three finals each at the Australian and French, six at Wimbledon and five at the U.S. Open. He holds the record of being ranked No. 1 for 237 weeks, breaking Jimmy Connors’ record of 160 for men and Steffi Graf’s 186 for women. …

Although gaining in popularity, the West Side members were forced out of their rented home after only ten years at Central Park. The venue now considered potentially too prosperous by its owners for it to be used solely for tennis. Despite this early set back, the club grew in stature and over the next twenty years West Side members were to relocate twice more, before finding their new home that was to accredit the now famous tournament with its name. 1912 saw the acquisition of the Forest Hills site in New York, however the club’s popularity required a 14,000 seat stadium rebuild to cope with public demand. Finally, West Side players had a permanent home. The potential of the new Forest Hills site drew attention from the United States Lawn Tennis association and major world players alike, it was here that the U.S open and Grand Slam events were to flourish and become recognizable around the globe. Tennis was at an all time high with the likes of Chris Evert, Martina Navratilova, Jimm …

We will learn to play a match about Tennis Scoring. Now let us consider a tennis match between Anna and Sania Mirza. And in the beginning Anna wins the toss and she is selected to serve the ball the first. In the match, now Sania Mirza moves to the place at the end of the court and Anna may serve the tennis ball from any where in the court behind her baseline and the right single sidelines and the centre marks of the tennis court. When hitting the ball, the serve must hit before the ball bounces and it must move to the service box opposite to her. A player can get two chances to serve a ball and if the two given serves are missed then she loses her points. It becomes redone, when the service becomes a good abstract of the net on its way in. In the match, if Anna gets her service in, then Sania Mirza returns the ball after the one bounce at any part of the Anna’s single court. After one bounce both of them must return the ball in to others court till one of them misses the ball. At the …

He may still have some way to go to convince many people that he is as good as some of the fellow greats of the modern era, namely Pete Sampras, Boris Becker, John McEnroe and Bjorn Borg. However, by registering a sixth straight Wimbledon Singles title, Federer would not be short of plaudits for equaling a record that was set in 1886 and has remained since. English player, William Renshaw, is the current holder of the record number of consecutive mens singles titles at Wimbledon but Federer is the favourite to win the mens singles title at Wimbledon 2008 and thus equaling the great achievement set all those years ago. Bjorn Borg was the last player to come close to equaling the record when winning five consecutive mens singles titles between 1976 and 1980 before losing in the 1981 final to John McEnroe. Pete Sampras dominated the title during the 1990’s, winning it a record seven times between 1993 and 2000, however, a surprise defeat in the 1996 Quarter Final to eventual winner Richa …
