The first tennis championships at Wimbledon took place in 1877, when twenty-two men paid one pound and one shilling to take part. These participants were told to bring their own rackets and to wear shoes without heels. Balls, however, were provided. In 1884, women were permitted to play in they own championships. However, play could only begin once the men’s singles were completed. A female player from the USA called May Sutton became the first overseas entrant to be crowned champion. She won the tournament in 1905 and went on to win it again in 1907. May’s entry showed that international players are willing to travel to London to take part in the championships. The popularity of tennis tournaments took spread far and wide, and today tournaments take place across the globe. This means professional players must be willing to travel long distances and thereby dedicate their lives to the game. As one famous player states: ‘For me playing tennis is not just a career, it’s a way of life.’
