Red Clay Tennis arriving in New Zealand | Local Focus

nzherald.co.nz published this video item, entitled “Red Clay Tennis arriving in New Zealand | Local Focus” – below is their description.

Clay is considered the best surface for development because the ball bounces high and slow.

“The rallies are longer and you have to play better points to win the point.”
