Clay courts are made of crushed brick or stone, resulting in a softer surface that slows down the ball and produces higher bounces, which can favor baseline rallies and strategic shot placement. In contrast, hard courts, typically constructed from asphalt or concrete, provide a faster surface that allows for quicker play and lower bounces, benefiting aggressive playstyles and serve-and-volley tactics. The difference in surface also affects player movement; clay courts can be more physically demanding due to the sliding required, while hard courts offer more traction. Overall, the distinct characteristics of each surface significantly influence gameplay and player performance.
