Who invented tennis?

The predecessor of tennis is a game called "Pocket Game" which was popular in French courts in the 4th century. The rule is that two players are separated by a rope, and balls made of cloth and hair are played with their palms facing each other. Since then, this game has been developed and improved. The rope has been replaced by a net, and the wooden racket will be used to hit the ball by hand, and then the wooden racket will have more strings. Since the18th century, this kind of game has also begun to appear in European folk, and prevailed in Europe in the19th century. Modern tennis was invented by British Major Walter Kloton winfield in February 1873. At that time, this game was used to please the guests at the backyard party. He created the sport based on the ancient indoor tennis or the game called primitive tennis. According to most tennis historians, most of the rules of modern tennis came from this, because winfield borrowed many elements from these two sports and also learned some technical rules of French Royal Tennis.
