Wimbledon – Bad Homburg return
150 Jahre Spitzentennis am Taunus
Tennis – a game writes history.
This book explains how the sport developed. It covers how the sport redefined itself in London in the 1870’s, set the ground rules and made itself marketable. At the same time, the example of the royal residence and spa town Bad Homburg shows how quickly the sport was adopted overseas and became a part of the local landscape in its new home. The story of modern tennis – an early example of globalisation.
The book will be published during the Bad Homburg Open 2024, the fourth occasion of the top WTA tennis tournament. So, tennis from Wimbledon to Bad Homburg again. An insightful read about how this event came to be.
Tournament ambassador Angelique Kerber, Mayor Alexander W. Hetjes, Spa director Holger Reuter and the historian Benedikt Stuchtey have all written their personal accounts. This unique book includes historic and contemporary photographs.
