Tennis. Bracelet

Did you know that tennis bracelets are actually bracelets with precious diamonds? I didn't know that. I thought it is a cloth thing you put in your wrist when you play tennis, a wristband that's what I thought about it. :) I am really not much into sports so excuse my stupidity.

Oh well, now at least I know that it is a piece of jewelry and that it originated from tennis champ Chris Evert lost her diamond bracelet in the middle of a tennis match. She requested to stop the game and until her precious bracelet was found. So from there the term "tennis bracelet" was born.

Now, do you happen to own a tennis bracelet?
