While invented in Birmingham, England, in the 19th Century, tennis has become popular worldwide, perhaps only second to soccer/football. The game is fast, easy to grasp, and accessible to spectators, participants and an inexplicable number of young, attractive Russian females (see: Kournikova, Kirilenko, Pivovarova, Sharapova, etc.) The game's worldwide following is evidenced by the locations of its four biggest tournaments (Melbourne, Paris, London, New York) and its induction as an Olympic sport in 1896.

    I was always confused between Badminton and Tennis. Now I know that Badminton is played with a ball and the racket is quite heavy one. Tennis is quite opposite lightweight racket and a shuttlecock .

    Both the games has indeed many health benefits.
