OBS

Dans certains contextes, les termes «terrain de tennis», «terrain» et «tennis», termes légèrement plus génériques que «court de tennis», rend bien les termes anglais «tennis area» ou «tennis facilities», c.-à-d. terrain de tennis comprenant le court proprement dit et une enceinte aménagée, p. ex., les tennis d'un club sportif. De plus, si on doit qualifier la notion, on privilégie le terme «court» comme le montre le cas suivant : «court central» (et non «terrain central»). Terme connexe : moquette.

CONT

Autour des tennis une piste de coureurs serait facilement construite.

PHR

tennis couvert.
