This bachelor thesis gives a coherent overview of tennis history evolution and modern olympic games. With tennis I am trying to focus on a history of tennis as itself, tennis evolution in the world and Czech republic. I mention history of tennis rules and tennis equipment. I introduce the four biggest tournaments known as the Grand Slams - Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon, Us Open. Within the chapter history of tennis in Czech republic I chosed few Czech players and tried to describe their life and their biggest tennis accomplishments. In the second chapter of my thesis I look into the history of ancient games, establishing of the International olympic committee as well as the Czech olympic committee. In the end I connect mentioned themes with a view on the olympic tennis history and individual tennis tournaments. Keywords Tennis, sport, Olympic games, history, tournament, Grand Slam, Czech tennis, ancient games
