1. Clay (red or green) The surface is made from clay and is very slow-paced. Red clay is the most commonly used surface in most of Europe and South & Latin America. The most famous event using this surface is the French Open at Roland Garros (Paris, FR). 2. Grass The most famous event is that played at The Championships - Wimbledon. 3. Hard There are several types used, mainly acrylic, asphalt and concrete. Both the Australian and US Open events are played on two varieties of acrylic surfaces. The most famous events played on this type of surface are the Australian Open and US Open. 4. "Indoor" Surfaces are largely plastic tiles or carpeted surfaces. Hard wood tends to make the ball difficult to return. Good source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tennis_court#Grass_courts
