It's only tradition. don't worry about wearing white unless you're going ti play at wimbledon. It's just because tennis was considered a noble sport, for gentlemen and ladies, blablabla.

It's a tradition and rounds off the tennis look. It is also cooler to wear as white absorbs less heat. White may be seen as bland, but it also depends on the design of the tennis outfit. It can be stylish as well. I think wearing white is nice because it's neutral, it's easy on the eyes and keeps up the identity, class and culture of tennis.

Tennis is considered a nobil sport. Only rich white people played it, at the beginning. White was the color that was pleasent for the summer heat & since at the start there where no indoor tennis. White became the color. Then, players & companies start to change this tradition, except in Wimbeldon.

white makes you less sweaty and hot in the hot sun...and its more formal to play in white clothes...its just not good for the eye to see someone wearing yellow clothes when playing tennis you know what I mean??

i guess it makes you feel comfortable in many ways and most importantly cooooool!!!!
also to mention is that ancient tennis was noble and not as fancy as today and therefore the players wore white outfit.
hey there is nothing to worry too much!
if u dont like it, simply dont wear it-make life easier man@

It seems to be a tradition especially at Wimbledon. I think it would also be cooler to play in.

I think it's because it gives less heat, whereas if you wear black, it absorbs more heat.

Because of the heat.
