My Favorite Sport -- Tennis (E)

Tennis is a very interesting sport. This is because playing


tennis is really cool, and it needs many high-toned skills.
Most of all, it only requires two persons to play.
Playing tennis is really elegant. I once watched a movie
about playing tennis, which was called Wimbledon. The
gesture of playing tennis was so beautiful that it
attracted my attention. The actress, Kirsten Caroline
Dunst, was good at playing tennis. She wore a tennis
jacket which was lovely, elegant and charming. I have
found that tennis is a pretty cool sport since I watched
this movie.
The angle of serving balls is a high-toned art. Playing
tennis is not as easy as playing badminton. But as soon as
I learn how to play tennis, I love it. The angle control is a
very important skill in playing tennis. Any attenuate
change will affect the trail of ball. So learning how to
control the angle becomes the key factor to success or
failure. It's so exciting that I enjoy it a lot.
Tennis is a popular sport. It's not like volleyball or
baseball which needs to scratch a team. When I want to
play it, I just need to find one person to play with me.
Its a very convenient sport. I can play it only with my
sister. It is the last reason why tennis becomes my
favorite sport.
In sum, tennis is not only easy to play but also an elegant
sport that requires skills. It's the best way for me to
relax. I'll keep on practicing it constantly!

Sport Tennis
Tennis is a sport played between two players (singles) or
between two teams of two players each (doubles). Each
player uses a strung racquet to strike a hollow rubber ball
covered with felt over a net into the opponents court. The
modern game of tennis was born in the United Kingdom in
the late 19th century. Then it was called lawn tennis.
Tennis soon became popular among the upper- class
English-speaking population.
Then it began to be played around the world. Tennis is an
Olympic sport and is played at all levels of society at all
ages. The sport can be played by anyone who can hold a
racket, including people in wheelchairs.
Other than the fact that the tiebreaker was adopted in the
1970s, the rules of tennis have not changed much since
the 1890s. A recent addition to professional tennis has
been the adoption of instant replay technology coupled
with a point challenge system. This allows a player to
challenge the official call of a point.
Tennis is a major spectator sport, especially the four
Grand Slam tournaments: the Australian Open, the French
Open, Wimbledon and the US Open. These tournaments
are considered to be the most Prestigious tennis
tournaments in the world. They are held annually.
Apart from the Olympic Games, Davis Cup, Fed Cup and
Hopman Cup they are the only tournaments regulated by
the International Tennis Federation (ITF). These events
possess historical significance and also carry huge prize
funds. Grand Slam mens tournaments have best-of-five
set matches throughout.
At present, the Grand Slam tournaments are the only tour
events that have mixed doubles contests. Grand Slam
tournaments are held in conjunction with wheelchair tennis

tournaments. The exception is Wimbledon, (where the


grass surface doesnt allow this) and junior tennis
competitions.
Grand Slam tournaments are often seen as the
culmination of a particular season, such as the US Open
Series. Wimbledon players are required to wear
predominantly white. This rule has made certain players
like Andre Agassi avoid the tournament.
Rod Laver, Bjorn Borg and Pete Sampras are among the
greatest tennis players in the history of the sport. Among
the contemporaries, Roger Federer is considered to have
the potential to surpass the achievements of these
illustrious predecessors. Many even feel that Federer
could become the greatest player in the history of the
game.

My favourite sport: tennis.


Tennis is one of the most popular sports in the world. This
sport can be played in pairs or alone, and to play this
sport you need a raquet, some balls, a net and a court.
The court can be a clay tennis court or a cement court. In
tournaments, it is more likely to play in a clay tennis court,
instead of playing in a cement court.
The positives things of this sport are that you can play
with a raquet instead of playing with your hands (like
volley) and that gives more power to the ball, witch is
better because you can throw the ball to a place in the
court where your opponent cant reach. But there are also
negatives things about tennis, like the bounce that the ball
can make: it can only make 1 bounce, and generally,
when your opponent throws you a short ball and you are
in the other corner of the court, you cant reach it.
In my opinion, tennis is a great sport. I think that if you are
all day long in your house, you should go and play tennis,

because it is very funny and if you know how to play it, is


easy!

My favourite sport: tennis


I love all the sports but i prefer tennis. Is an international
sport and you can play alone or in pairs. You have to win 3
or 5 sets. The equipment needed is a racket, a ball and a
net.
Tennis is good for your health, it isn't agressive as football
or boxing and is a male and a female sport so nobody

have problems to play it. Isn't it a great sport?


Anyway, you have to be strong to play it and you can hurt
your hand, your leg or something of your body. In spite of
doing a lot of excersice, is very tired to play three hours
the same match!
My conclusion is that you have a lot of positive and
negative points, but tennis is a beautiful sport and that's
why i love it. I recommend to watch and play it, because is
one of the best sport of the world.
