No article, or zero article as it is usually called, is definitely a form of article. We use zero article with plural and uncountable nouns when we are referring to things in general:
Tennis is a beautiful game.
French chefs make the best cooks.
Cheese in France is usually made from cows' or goats' milk.
But note, when we want to be specific, the definite article is needed:
The tennis played by Maria Sharapova at Wimbledon this year was awesome.
The French chef at La Caprice is one of the best in the south east.
I'm still eating the cheese I bought in France last month.
