There are 4 major tournaments. Wimbledon , French Open , Australian Open and the US Open. Check those websites four some good history. You will be able to click on history of the tournament right on the web site.
Look up Billi Jean King. She had a huge impact on the equality of Women in sports.
The US governing Body is called the USTA. There website will give you good stuff to copy from.
You touch on the stuff I just told you , you will be golden.

Sam Smith is my favourite commentator. She is actually a WTA expert and knows everything about every player! I don't think she gets enough credit because she is right on the mark for everything. Also she isn't irritating and annoying like a lot of the American commentators who don't shut up when you are trying to watch the match, e.g Tracy Austin. Sam is also really funny when commentating on her matches. Other than that I also like Simon Reed, Chris Bradnam, Annabel Croft and the Wimbledon commentators on BBC are good with John McEnroe, Nick Mullins and Lindsay Davenport. BQ - Will answer right now after this :) BQ2 - Maybe, last year that's what happened anyway. However she has a really good team around her and she seems to be motivated and played very well last week in Toronto. Hopefully she has a good run at the US Open and can finish the year well and perhaps get a seeding for the Australian Open. BQ3 - I've noticed this too! She doesn't seem like her usual self, maybe it's just fatigue she has had a long season and played a lot of matches. But she is still in Cincinnati and then will go to the US Open so hopefully she will be fresh. BQ4 - I'm not really sure, I'll say Rugby because that's a really physical sport that takes a lot out on the body, but there's a lot of sports that deserve high pay. Also I'm sorry I don't know much abpout cycling. But yes I'm exactly the same I also watched a lot of the indoor cycling in the velodrome during the Olympics! It was really exciting I must say!

i play tennis 24/7 so i'd love to help. You have a serve,volley,forehand,backhand,slice,overhead,
You loose the point if you hit it out or in the net. The score is 0,15,30,40 game.....you play sets up to 6 games. Roger Federer is the mens #1 and Justine Henin-Hardenne is the women's#1 player.

Instead of taking time typing this question, you could have been working on you're project.
Do you're own damn homework.

I would advise googling tennis, and then learning how to spell and use correct grammar so that your paper is legible.

You should just google everything u just said there. Its fast and easy.
DONT use wikipedia, its not reliable. Anyone can put what they want in there, there is litterally an edit button on every page!
