Greencourt’s Red Court clay, protagonist of the 68th Conde de Godó Trophy
It is clear that Rafa Nadal continues to dominate the Godó; there is no doubt about that. After months without playing, he has once again demonstrated his best game on what is, without a doubt, his surface par excellence: clay. Each hit, each point, and each victory have once again turned the Conde de Godó Trophy into a true celebration of tennis.
But this year, in addition to Nadal, there has been another great silent protagonist: the court. And many of you will have noticed it—the clay of the center court had a much more reddish, more intense, and vibrant color than in previous editions. The bounce was more uniform, the sliding more natural, and the spectacle, simply, impeccable.
The secret lies in Greencourt’s Red Court 01 and 02 mixture.
This Greencourt clay, made from brick fired at 800 °C, guarantees perfect drainage without the formation of sludge, even after heavy rains. Its balanced particle size and density allow it to remain stable on the surface throughout the game, preventing displacement and offering greater comfort to tennis players. In addition, its fine texture contributes to a more predictable behavior of the ball and better traction underfoot.
A technical and aesthetic combination that has made it possible to enjoy memorable matches and a court in its maximum splendor. Here are some images that say it all: pure passion for tennis… and for clay.
