In 1958, physicist William Higinbotham created Tennis for Two, the first video game ever played on the device it was built for—a Donner analog computer connected to an oscilloscope! Designed as a science exhibit, the game used simple controllers and physics-based gameplay to simulate tennis. Though forgotten for years, it stands as the first true video game played on its original hardware, marking a historic moment in interactive entertainment.

Reason #3 to Play CLOSER to the Net! In doubles, you should often play close to the net on your partner’s serve. In recent lessons I discussed why it makes dropshots and angle volleys easier, plus allows for shank winners! This is reason #3 and it’s my favorite one 💪 @willboucek #tennis #tennisdoubles #tennislife | The Tennis Tribe
