Tennessee Tennis Hall of Fame

The Tennessee Tennis Hall of Fame is an organization created in 1992 under the authority of the United States Tennis Association (USTA) which is the national governing body for tennis in the United States. Tennessee is one of the nine states in the USTA's Southern Division, functioning as the "Tennessee Tennis Patrons Foundation" established in 1988. The latter is a non-profit 501(c)(3) corporation governed by an eight-member volunteer board which is responsible for choosing the state's hall of fame inductees. As of 2022, it includes 82 honorees including five-time U.S. Davis Cup member Roscoe Tanner and Great Britain Davis Cup team member Derrick Barton who moved to Tennessee to coach.
