Today we are celebrating our 45th birthday!

Since 1981, the Texas Tennis Museum and Hall of Fame has been preserving the people, moments, and memories that define Texas tennis. From championship trophies and historic racquets to the legends who built the game in our state, every exhibit tells part of the story.

As we celebrate this milestone, we thank the supporters, volunteers, inductees, and visitors who have helped keep these stories alive for future generations.
