Hi everyone:
On next Saturday, I'm going to play a match at an indoors artificial clay court.
I have played once at that court, and it is like playing on some kind of sandy carpet that doesn't let you slide. The bounce is slower than on hard courts and the court seemed comfortable and easier on the knees.
I have never played on real clay, just on hard courts and (sometimes) artificial grass courts. My technique is more adapted to faster courts (more eastern grips, less spin). since I've mostly played tennis during my teen years at indoors hard courts.
Has anyone played on a surface like this? What are some tips to play at these courts?
Thank you!
