[https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/MirzaHingis-China-Hero-300x169.jpg]Indian Tennis Star Sania Mirza (above left) will look to win back to back US Open titles. Indian Tennis Star Sania Mirza seemed to have recovered from a disappointing Olympic campaign, as she roared back to form, winning two titles in two weeks on the American subcontinent. Partnering Monica Niculescu of Romania, the two beat the pairing of Kateryna Bondarenko of Ukraine and Chuang Chia-Jung of Taiwan 7-5, 6-4 in almost 90 minutes to clinch the title on Saturday. This is the second title for Sania since her split with Martina Hingis, a pairing considered as one of the most successful and dominant partnerships in recent times. Mirza won the Cincinnati Open last week, when she partnered Barbora Strycova of the Czech Republic to down the pairing of Hingis and American Coco Vandeweghe. The wins just highlight Sania’s versatility: her ability to win titles with different partners, and how to adapt to the situation quickly. Putting her Rio loss behind, Sania will head into the US Open this coming week on a high note. The 29 year old World No.1 will pair up with Cincinnati partner Strycova at the US Open. The two are strong contenders for the title and given their display of tennis last week, we see no reason why they shouldn’t be.

<strong>History</strong>

The sport of tennis is said to originate from the 12th century in France. However, at that time, players were using their palms to hit the ball. From the 16th century onwards, rackets began to be put in use.

But it was only from the 19th century onwards that it became a serious game. A typical tennis match consists of games. Players score 15 points to 30 points to 40 points and finally a game. In the event of 40-40, also known as a deuce, a player has to gain an advantage and win the next point to win the game.

The first to reach 6 games with a minimum gap of 2 games wins a set. However, if one player wins 6 games and the other wins 5, the leading player has to win a 7th game before his opponent. In the event of six games all, on certain occasions, a tiebreak is played until a player either reaches 6 games or wins by 2 games if both reach 6 games.

Coming to sets, there are 2 types of matches, 3-set matches and 5-set matches. In the event of the former, if a player earns 2 set wins, he or she wins the match. In the latter's case, it is a case of a player winning at least 3 sets.

The Australian Open is the youngest, first being held in 1905.

With regard to players, Margaret Court holds the record for the most Grand Slam wins for women. In the men's section, it is Roger Federer.
