WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO BE A HALL OF FAMER?
Just 262 legends in tennis history have received the honor of induction into the International Tennis Hall of Fame, representing achievement in the sport at the highest possible level.
Many have earned their place through raw talent, incomparable determination, and remarkable athletic feats. Others are recognized and honored for major contributions to the development and promotion of the sport.
All of these Hall of Famers, however, have gone above and beyond in their commitment to tennis, and have inspired a love for the sport in fans worldwide.
