Krátky popis
Tennis, the much-loved sport, is a game for the ages dating back to
sixteenth-century royal court matches played by King Henry VIII.
History of Tennis captures the sport s long history, never short of
theatrics, rivalries, power plays, political controversies, and
inspiring personal stories. Beautiful historic and contemporary
images of gripping matches like the unforgettable Bjorn Borg versus
John McEnroe tiebreak match in 1980, to behind-the-scenes moments
with tennis legends, and never-before-seen shots, grace each page
accompanied by Richard Evans s intriguing stories and unique
insight detailing the evolution of this majestic sport by decade.
Starting as a European royal pastime and gaining popularity in
England and France, the sport made its way to America in the late
1870s as the new game of lawn tennis, creating along the centuries
legendary tennis superstars such as Bill Tilden, Suzanne Lenglen
and the Four Musketeers, Fred Perry, Billie Jean King, John
McEnroe, and Steffi Graf. Now one of the most highly watched sports
globally with top-billing icons like Novak Djokovic, Serena
Williams, Rafael Nadal, and Naomi Osaka, there is no stopping the
power of this all enthralling game. This is a must-have volume for
lifelong fans and those intrigued by the sporting theatre and grand
culture of tennis.
