All About Tennis - According to Ms. Daizy, the name of this sport came from the French word tenetz , which means "take heed" or "watch out!" That's what players yelled as they served the ball. In the early days, people didn't have tennis rackets; they used their bare hands. If this is true, it's amazing the game of tennis isn't called "OUCH!" At this site you'll get a fine introduction to tennis rules, fun facts, and drills and skills.
