I am Ashmit. I Play Tennis In Evening for 1 hour. Today my blog is on Tennis history which I learn form my Sport life book 

Tennis originated as the 12th-century French handball game jeu de paume (game of the palm), evolving into indoor real tennis by the 16th century with the addition of rackets and the word "tennis" likely from the French "tenez" (take). Modern tennis, or lawn tennis, emerged in the 1870s from the 19th-century game of lawn tennis, which Walter Clopton Wingfield patented in 1874 and the first tournament was held at Wimbledon in 1877, leading to the standardized rules seen today.
