EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in the history of Japanese tennis. Taken on 26th January 1923, it showcases a group of talented Japanese tennis players diligently practicing at Hendon, London County Club. These skilled athletes were none other than the members of the Japanese tennis team who were preparing to face off against Surrey at Purley Bury. In this monochrome image, we see four individuals standing side by side with their tennis racquets held firmly in hand. The players are identified as H Watanabe, S Imajo, K Yamamoto, and H Iwasaki. Their focused expressions reveal their determination and dedication towards honing their skills on the court. The significance of this photograph lies not only in its portrayal of these remarkable athletes but also in its representation of cultural exchange during that era. It highlights how sports can transcend borders and bring people from different nations together through friendly competition. Preserved by Central News for posterity, this snapshot from the 1920s serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of these pioneering Japanese tennis players. It reminds us that even decades ago, they paved the way for future generations to excel in international sports events while fostering mutual understanding between cultures
