I
would like to speak about sports. I chose tennis
because I love that. I hope you know it but for the one who doesn’t know here
the history of tennis. This sport was born at the end of 19th century in Great
Britain. Hurrah for the English. 2 or 4 players can play. There are many
tournaments like Wimbledon in London, Roland Garros in Paris, the Australian
Open in Melbourne and the US Open in NewYork. The big meeting has been the Davis
Cup since 1900 and it was won by France in 2001.
This
year, the final will oppose France to Russia. I have found well known players from France, Germany, Finland, Great
Britain and Romania. I didn’t find players in Poland.
Can you
let me know if you know one ?
