  • Introduction All Available Tennis History
    Introduction All available tennis history books tackle tennis history unevenly in two main respects. They usually give very little information on the pre-1919 years and do not give enough weight to professional tennis before 1968. I decided to overcome these limitations in my book by devoting one page for each year starting from 1877. Each page contains a short summary of the major events in that particular year, with scores of classic matches given in detail; and year-end rankings in tabulated form that show the performance of the top players at the major events. As the greatest novelty of this work I have provided year-end rankings for the whole course of tennis history. These include each year the Top 8 players (with their nationality and age indicated) and (separated by a dividing line) additional winners of the listed major events. Although from 1973 and 1975 there are official computer rankings by the ATP and WTA, respectively, their main purpose is to have an order of admittance to tournaments and facilitate seeding. Opinions differ as to the credibility of such computer lists for other purposes. The calculation methods often changed during their history, and they did not take into account important tournaments (like the year-ending championships till 1990) and team competitions (like Davis Cup till 2009). Prior to the use of the computer, rankings were a matter of judgement made by tennis journalists. I feel that even after the introduction of computer lists, the opinion of leading journalists represent a better guide to the future historian of how the players stood in relation to each other.
