singles court
One-on-one boundaries
A singles court is the playing area used in one-on-one matches in racket sports like tennis or badminton.
In tennis, the singles court is narrower than the doubles court, excluding the alleys on either side: Her serve landed just inside the singles court sideline.
The dimensions define legal play for individual competition.
