The court is 78 feet (23.77m) long, and 27 feet (8.23m) wide for singles matches and 36 feet (10.97m) for doubles matches.<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:100%;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" line-height: 10px;font-size:11px;"> </span></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" line-height: 19px; font-family:sans-serif;font-size:13px;"><br /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" line-height: 19px; font-family:sans-serif;font-size:13px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:100%;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" line-height: 10px;font-size:11px;"></span></span>Additional clear space around the court is required in order for players to reach overrun balls.
