What Is the History of .tennis?
The .tennis domain was applied for by multiple parties, including Tennis Australia Ltd., which sought to restrict registration to its community. However, after failing the Community Priority Evaluation (CPE) with only 11 out of 16 required points, a private auction was held in November 2014. Donuts (through Cotton Bloom, LLC) won the rights and was delegated to the root zone on February 4, 2015. The TLD became generally available on May 20, 2015.
