Understanding Tennis Court Dimensions: How Accurate Are They for Various Uses?

[piropa]

Hi everyone,

I'm curious about the standard dimensions for tennis courts.

I know the official dimensions for singles and doubles play are different, but how strict do these measurements need to be?

For example, when setting up a backyard court or using multi-purpose courts, can there be flexibility in sizing, or should they be as close to regulation as possible?

What are the consequences of not adhering to these dimensions in terms of playability or game flow?

Any advice on adapting these measurements for recreational use would be appreciated!
