Q: How popular is tennis in the US?

Tennis is notable for having the fastest rate of growth among the so-called traditional sports, with 6.78 million new or returning players and only 2.82 million dropping out. Tennis had gained and lost around 4-5 million players every year during the past decade. In 2017, there were about 23 million people living in the United States, which makes it the country's most popular sport. There are several factors that have helped make tennis such a popular sport in the United States. One is the price of tennis balls. They can cost up to $20 a box but Americans love their tennis, so they tend to buy more than what would be expected of someone who was paying full price. Also, many schools use their athletic budgets to purchase equipment for their sports teams. This is particularly true in areas where there are few opportunities to play sports - either because there are not any local clubs or because the schools do not have any sports programs themselves. In conclusion, tennis is a very popular sport in the United States. This is partly due to its low cost and availability in schools across the country. It also helps that this is one of the only countries where men and women compete on equal terms. In fact, America has more female tennis players than any other country in the world.

The number of players has increased by nearly 200,000 since 2003, while the number of clubs has decreased by nearly 10,000. There are now about 1.3 million individuals playing tennis at some level. About 85 percent of players are men, 13 percent are women.

Tennis's growing popularity is seen as one of the reasons why advertising revenue at major sports events is increasing. In 2004, Nike was reported to have spent $20 million on advertising during the Olympics; it was estimated that this amounted to about two-tenths of one percent of the company's annual revenue at the time.

In 2008, $100 million was reportedly spent on advertising during the Beijing Olympics. This was said to be a record for an Olympic games with a non-sports event attached. However, only $10 million of this was claimed by individual advertisers; the rest was attributed to the organizers' marketing budget.
