-There are three types of tennis courts. Concrete, often referred to as hardcourt, clay, and grass. A tennis court is 78 feet long. A singles court is 27 feet wide while a doubles court is 36 feet wide because of two 4 and 1/2 feet alleys. The net is three feet tall at the center and gradually increases in height until it becomes three and a half feet high at the two net posts. <ref>http://silverfoxtennis.com/TennisQuiz_files/frame.htm</ref>

 ==ATP Rankings==
 The Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) determines tennis player rankings by their cumulative points total over the last 52 weeks. Players earn points by winning matches in tournaments, with more points being awarded the further a player progresses in each tournament and with more prestigious tournaments being worth more points. The rankings are used to determine player qualification and seeding in each tournament.
