What are my plans for improving the program? ............................................................... 12 1 1. Introduction - What is the grand slam tennis program? The Grand Slam Tennis Program allows you to see how recent grand slam tennis champions would fair against champions from the past. You can choose from more than 90 former men's grand slam champions and more than 80 former Women's Champions. In addition, you can choose to play the tennis match at the Australian Open, U.S. Open, Wimbledon, or French Open. International tennis matches can also be played, with the option of choosing from many countries around the world. The program is perfect for simulating individual match ups or holding an entire tournament. This is not video graphic game. It is a statistical game based on each former tennis player’s historical success in playing major grand slam singles events. While some players have a higher probability of success, their performance in any particular tournament is still subject to the laws of random probability. For example, a player who has had major success in the French Open is likely to do well in the French Open, but could still lose to a player who has had less historical success in the French Open.

  • Tennis and World War I
    Tennis & War: World War I Overview: As students learn about conflicts throughout history, they will also learn about the tennis players/Hall of Famers who participated in these conflicts, whether on the battlefield or on the home front. The activities that accompany this unit are geared toward students in 6th-8th grade. These activities encompass review of Common Core Standards mastered at previous grade levels as well as Common Core Standards Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects and English Language Arts Writing to be mastered at the students’ current grade level. Objectives: Students will be able to- ● Form an understanding of the way these wars impacted everyday life ● Activate background knowledge regarding World War I ● Gain an understanding of the conflict ● Complete a short research project that answers the questions of who these tennis players were and their importance not only in the world of tennis, but to history as a whole. Lesson Time Suggested: Two or three class periods Anthony Wilding New Zealand’s Anthony Wilding he made his Wimbledon debut in 1904, but it wasn’t until six years later that he was able to hoist the trophy, becoming the first and only New Zealander to win a Wimbledon championship. He defended his title for the next four years. Wilding’s bid to win a fifth straight Wimbledon was stymied by doubles partner Norman Brookes in 1915. In the midst of his Wimbledon dominance in 1913, Wilding won world titles on clay, grass, and wood. When Wilding focused on doubles, he and Brookes in particular were a superb team.

Winning the title at each major in the same year is known as the “Grand Slam”. Three women have completed the singles Grand Slam in a calendar year: 1953 – Maureen Connolly; 1970 – Margaret Court; 1988 – Stefanie Graf. A further seven women have won each Grand Slam singles title at least once in their careers (known as the career Grand Slam): Doris Hart, Shirley Fry, Billie Jean King, Chris Evert, Martina Navratilova, Serena Williams and Maria Sharapova, with Navratilova (1983-84) and Williams (2002-03, 2014-15) holding all four titles at the same time. Australia’s Margaret Court holds the record for all-time Grand Slam singles titles (men or women) with 24 titles, ahead of Stefanie Graf and Serena Williams, who holds the Open Era record with 23 Grand Slam singles titles. In the Open Era, seven women have won three of the four Grand Slam titles: Lindsay Davenport, Evonne Goolagong Cawley, Justine Henin, Martina Hingis, Hana Mandlikova, Monica Seles and Virginia Wade.
