why are tennis courts different materials?

202 views

Pro basketball always on wood. Pro football (US) mostly on grass. Why do tennis surfaces vary so much?

Or is it just green clay sometimes?

There are indeed green clay courts, as well as things like carpet and wood courts! Other posters have answered your question better than I could, but I feel like the [tennis court Wikipedia page](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tennis_court) can give you more info on the different surfaces as well as benefits and drawbacks for each type.
