It is my pet peeve every time the Olymics comes round that paid professionl athletes , especially tennis players who are competing for their country are featured.
What about the young girl relying on her town to have bake sales, car washes etc to help sponsor her so that she can represent her country.
Out of 529 athletes only 21 suposedly favorites are shown , this is a disgrace to humanity.

Was tennis in the ancient greek Olympics?
No, it wasn't. Tennis started at the Olympics in 1869, when the first modern Olympic games in Athens took place. It was then dropped in 1924 due to the fact that the administrators could not agree on the issue of defining what an amateur was, an what a professional was. Back in those days, amateurs we're not allowed to compete in the Olympics, no matter how good they we're.
