In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “I really really like tennis” is a common card of the Memes FR pack, number 3001 of the collection, and the 753rd best-known meme of its 3499 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.
What does the “I really really like tennis” meme mean?
The expression captures childhood innocence and raw sincerity, where linguistic nuances give way to direct emotional intensity. The comedic hook lies in the mismatch between the approximate syntax ('very much') and concrete reality (playing the sport). In context, it allows users to express categorical claims with irony or affection, often highlighting an authentic or quirky declaration. Users adopt this structure to highlight their own passions with a charming touch of self-deprecation.
Where does the “I really really like tennis” meme come from?
The primary source is an exchange recorded and broadcast by Humains TV as part of their series 'Les Pitchounes'. In this clip, former French President François Hollande interviews a young boy about his activities and preferences. The child spontaneously states: 'Moi, j’aime très beaucoup le tennis'. When Hollande asks if he actually plays this sport, the child simply replies: 'J’en fais'. This interaction was published on the Ausha platform. The visible upload date indicates May 26, 2025, although the exact recording date is not specified in consulted sources. The child's identity remains unknown publicly. The comedy stems specifically from the unusual adverbial accumulation used by the child, contrasting with the brevity of the final answer.

The reprints of the “I really really like tennis” card
The “I really really like tennis” card was reprinted as Rare (No. 3,111) and Epic (No. 5,074). A reprint is the same meme printed again, with a number of its own and a higher rarity than its first printing, which was common. Its face reads “Reprinted card · Higher rarity”.
Every printing is dealt in the packs of the Memes FR pack, each at its own rarity: the higher it is, the rarer the card is to pull. Copies of the first printing already pulled stay as they are, and any printing counts toward completing a set.
MyMemeCards reprints a meme when it deserves more than the rarity of its first printing, such as a classic that became iconic after it came out: the reprint gives it a place among the most sought-after cards without taking anything from the players who already had it.
