He published the first book of rules 💳 that year and took out a patent on his game in 1874, although historians have concluded that similar games were 💳 played earlier and that the first tennis club was established by the Englishman Harry Gem and several associates in Leamington 💳 in 1872.
Wingfield's court was of the hourglass shape and may have developed from badminton.
The hourglass shape, stipulated by Wingfield in 💳 his booklet "Sphairistiké, or Lawn Tennis," may have been adopted for patent reasons since it distinguished the court from ordinary 💳 rectangular courts.
At the time, the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) was the governing body of real tennis, whose rules it had 💳 recently revised.After J.M.
Heathcote, a distinguished real tennis player, developed a better tennis ball of rubber covered with white flannel, the 💳 MCC in 1875 established a new, standardized set of rules for tennis.
Meanwhile, the game had spread to the United States 💳 in the 1870s.
Mary Outerbridge of New York has been credited with bringing a set of rackets and balls to her 💳 brother, a director of the Staten Island Cricket and Baseball Club.
But research has shown that William Appleton of Nahant, Massachusetts, 💳 may have owned the first lawn tennis set and that his friends James Dwight and Fred R.
Sears popularized the game.
An 💳 important milestone in the history of tennis was the decision of the All England Croquet Club to set aside one 💳 of its lawns at Wimbledon for tennis, which soon proved so popular that the club changed its name to the 💳 All England Croquet and Lawn Tennis Club.
In 1877 the club decided to hold a tennis championship, and a championship subcommittee 💳 of three was appointed.
It decided on a rectangular court 78 feet (23.
8 metres) long by 27 feet (8.2 metres) wide.

There were several alterations in some of the other rules (e.g.
, governing the height of the net) until 1880, when 💳 the All England Club and the MCC published revised rules that approximate very closely those still in use.
The All England 💳 Club was the dominant authority then, the British Lawn Tennis Association (LTA) not being formed until 1888.
In 1880 the first 💳 U.S.
championship was held at the Staten Island Cricket and Baseball Club.

National Lawn 💳 Tennis Association, later renamed the U.S.
Lawn Tennis Association and, in 1975, the U.S.
Tennis Association (USTA).
Under its auspices, the first official 💳 U.S.
national championship, played under English rules, was held in 1881 at the Newport Casino, Newport, Rhode Island.
