The International Tennis Hall of Fame and Tennis Museum, 194 Bellevue Avenue at Memorial Boulevard, is sure to be of interest to anyone obsessed with the game. The casino (1880) is the perfect location for a tennis museum. Major professional tournaments are still played here during June, July, and August. The museum has trophies, tennis fashions, and displays explaining the evolution of tennis equipment. The 13 grass courts (and 3 indoor courts) are open to the public for play, so bring your racquet and call ahead to make arrangements.
