the pyramid beach roadhouse

the photo’s real, the grass is not…

that’s Andre Agassi and Rodger Federer high above Dubai at the hotel Burj Al Arab on the world’s highest tennis court…

at almost 700 feet who’s could concentrate on a game..?

check out the video — at about 4:30 they start firing firing balls off at the unfortunates below…

meanwhile, “Real Tennis” — the game from which all racquet sports evolved — dates back to the Renaissance and is much more down to Earth…

played on an asymmetrical 90′ x 40′ court, the scoring is similar to tennis — but Real Tennis uses a cork-based ball, way less bouncy than a modern tennis ball, and a very stiff racquet with an angled head… only 47 courts still exist — in the U.K., Australia, the U.S., and France — all of them at ground level…
