Tennis at the 2010 Commonwealth Games was the inaugural appearance of Tennis at the Commonwealth Games. The tennis competition was held at the R.K. Khanna Tennis Complex in Delhi, India, from 4 to 10 October 2010.
Background Although tennis has long been on the list of approved optional Commonwealth Games sports, and has featured in every Commonwealth Youth Games programme, it made its maiden appearance in a full Commonwealth Games programme at the 2010 Commonwealth Games.
The tennis events clashed with the dates of the China Open, an ATP World Tour 500 and WTA Tour Premier Mandatory event, which brought concerns that governing bodies would fail to persuade their top players to compete in Delhi. No male or female player in the world's top 100 ranked players competed, with the exception of world number 63 Anastasia Rodionova. India's leading player's Mahesh Bhupathi and Sania Mirza also competed.
