The game developed so rapidly that by the end of the XVI century in Paris was equipped with more than 250 special courts, and the number of players exceeded seven thousand. Depending on the ability to lead the game, the players were gradually divided into three categories: beginner, partner and master. The masters had the greatest privileges. They were given the right to build and own courts for the game. One of the masters developed the first rules of tennis in 1542, but they were published only 50 years later.
