Although it is not confirmed, tennis is thought to have originated in the monasteries in Northern France in the 12th Century. The palms were used to hit the ball initially. Rackets weren't used until the 16th Century.

when was lawn tennis invented
Tennis is one of the oldest of all racquet sports. During the Tudor times it was played indoors in a large room with a net. Like tennis today, players had to hit the ball over the net. However, in the Tudor times, the ball could also be bounced off the walls and points were also scored by hitting the ball into one of three goals high in the walls. Tudor tennis rackets were made of wood and strung with sheep gut. The leather tennis balls were filled with hair.
Presumably, the guy who invented tennis.
