Following the 1924 Olympics, after 28 years of Olympic tennis, the International Olympics Commitee (IOC) and the International Tennis Federation came into conflict over the participation of "professional" players. IOC restrictions on players employed by newspapers was one of the more onerous rules, and the IOC sought to limit the professional competitions held in Olympic years.
As part of the overall relaxation of amateur determination between 1960 and 1984, tennis returned as a demonstration sport in 1968 and 1984, and to full status in 1988.
Mixed doubles, first played at the 1924 games, returned to Olympic competition in 2012.

Tennis was removed from the summer Olympics in 1924. The argument was that Tennis does not uphold the Olympic ideals. Having said this, it is also argued that Tennis does not rightly belong in the Olympics because the Tennis players who do qualify for the Olympics find other tournaments and Grand Slams more of a goal and gaining prize money then winning a gold medal in the Olympics. -Thomas Wren
