The Tennis Game
The advertisement is from American video game publisher and developer Tengen Inc. It highlights the absurd idea that while preparing for the tennis world cup, it would be great for the players to practice on their video games instead of coming to the net.

Davis, who arranged the first match between the United States and Britain at the Longwood Cricket Club. The Cup continued throughout the years but in 2022, Russia and Belarus had to be suspended due to the invasion in Ukraine.
