Tennis events run throughout the year in Jingshan. A schedule posted in Wenfeng Park, home to the city's first true tennis court, highlighted that by early November, 35 competitive matches had been held, almost a competition every week.

In recent years, a new generation of Chinese players has experienced a surge on the world tennis stage, including Zheng Qinwen and her predecessor Li Na, both hailing from Hubei. Parents across the country carry the hope of nurturing the next tennis stars and bring their children to Jingshan to pursue their tennis dreams.
