Woman Plays Tennis, 1903 This photograph, taken in the early 1900s, showcases a woman gracefully engaging in a game of tennis. The image, from Mary Evans Picture Library, transports us back in time to an era when the sport was just beginning to gain popularity among women. The woman in the photograph wears a long, flowing white skirt, which is both elegant and practical for the game. Her posture is poised and confident as she readies herself for the next serve, her eyes focused intently on the ball. In her hand, she holds a racquet with a white cover, a common accessory used to protect the racquet from the grass courts prevalent during this time. The scene is set on a lush, green grass court, with the net dividing the two sides. The net, made of hemp or wire, was a crucial element of the game, ensuring fair play and keeping the ball in play. The woman's companion, dressed similarly, stands nearby, ready to offer support or encouragement. Tennis, a sport that originated in France in the late 12th century, had evolved significantly by the early 1900s. It was no longer just a pastime for the aristocracy but had become a popular recreational activity for the middle and upper classes. The introduction of the net, the development of better rackets, and the establishment of formal rules had transformed tennis into a more accessible and enjoyable sport for women. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of tennis and the grace and determination of the women who played it. It offers a glimpse into the history of the sport and the evolution of women's participation in it. The long white skirt, the racquet, and the net – all remain iconic symbols of the game, reminding us of its rich heritage and the joy it brings to millions of players around the world.
