High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Real tennis, often called "Royal Tennis"?one of several sports sometimes called the sport of Kings?is the original indoor racquet sport from which the modern game of lawn tennis, or tennis, is descended. It is also known as jeu de paume in France, "court tennis" in the United States, "Royal Tennis" in Australia. The term "real" was first used by journalists in the middle of the twentieth century to distinguish the ancient game from modern "lawn" tennis (even though that sport is seldom contested on lawns these days outside the few social-club-managed estates such as Wimbledon). There is no evidence that it is a corruption of the word 'royal' as some have indicated. Real tennis players often call the game "tennis", while continuing to refer to its more widely played offshoot as "lawn tennis".
