When did modern tennis evolve in England?

Correct Answer: In the late 19th century

Modern tennis evolved in England in the late 19th century. The game of lawn tennis was codified in the 1870s, with the first Wimbledon Championship held in 1877 — making it the world's oldest and most prestigious tennis tournament.

The sport quickly grew in popularity and was originally played on grass courts at country houses and clubs. Today, the Wimbledon Championships held each summer in London remain one of the most famous sporting events in the world, and one of the four Grand Slam tournaments.
