9 amazing tennis courts from around the world
All eyes are on Wimbledon this July, but we secretly wish the tournament finals were being played on one of these incredible tennis courts...
1. The Enchantment Resort, Arizona
Tennis with a view, anyone? The spectacular courts at the Enchantment Resort in Sedona, Arizona.

2. Burj Al Arab Jumeira, UAE
The helipad attached to Dubai's most iconic hotel was temporarily converted by ATP into a tennis court in 2005. They lost a lot of balls.

3. Doha, Qatar
And they reckon the courts at Wimbledon can be slippery... This temporary floating court was a part of an ATP campaign in 2015. They also lost a lot of balls.

4. Il San Pietro di Positano, Amalfi Coast
Sadly, it's guests only at this incredible court on the Amalfi Coast, but we say it's worth the hefty cost at the five-star luxury hotel...

5. Church of San Paolo, Milan
This 16th century church in Milan was deconsecrated in 1808... and subsequently converted into a tennis court by New York artist Asad Raza in 2017. (Temporarily, of course.)
