Have Tennis, Will Travel: Nevada

Tennis may not be the first thing on your mind when you get to Vegas, but you can find championship caliber courts right on the Strip.



LAS VEGAS, NEVADA - JANUARY 29:  Purple and gold lights flicker around the Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas sign as a tribute to nine victims killed in a helicopter crash on Sunday in Southern California, including Kobe Bryant and his daughter Gianna Bryant, on January 29, 2019 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Clark County officials switched the lightbulbs to Los Angeles Lakers colors in honor of Kobe Bryant, who played in preseason NBA games in Las Vegas as well as practiced with the USA Basketball Men's National Team in the city ahead of the 2008 and 2012 Olympics.
