Is the following sentence correct and natural?

I won the champion of the tennis at my school in 1999.

Perhaps:

There was a tennis tournament at my school, and I won it.

**Yankee** · 20-Oct-2019, 23:31

Or, "I won the tennis championship at my school in 1999".

**tedmc** · 21-Oct-2019, 01:39

Or, "I won the champion trophy for tennis at my schopl in 1999."
