Really? $30 isn't that bad. I paid $25 once for an early round at a challenger where there was only one court going at a time

It is on red clay I believe at River Oaks. Not quite the same as the clay at FO however.

If I remember correctly from the Sampras-Ginepri exhibition that was played here, this court can play about as slow as Hamburg.
