World Hard Court Championships
The World Hard Court Championships, which were held on clay in the years 1912-14 and, after the First World War, 1920-23.
The tournament was held in Paris every year, with one exception, 1922, when it was held in Brussels.
The WHC event was designed by the French to rival Wimbledon as an international event of major significance. For years the United States refused to enter the International Tennis Federation until the "World Championship" titles were dropped from the events in Wimbledon and Paris. As a condition of entry into the ITF the Federation dropped the "World Hard Court" titles in 1923.
While the 1923 event was the end of the line for the WHC event it lived on under another guise. In 1924 the Olympic Games in Paris neatly replaced it, then in 1925 the French finally decided on a "French Open". The French Open was contested at the same site as the old World Hard Court events, making the WHC in a very real sense the forerunner of today's French Open.
