Answer 5

With or without spectators?   ;)

Seriously, though, it depends on the size of your yard, what kind of court you want (hard? clay or har-tru (don't forget the cost of watering it)? rubber? sea shells? (don't laugh! I've seen it!)), whether you need a fence,  overhead lights, weather bubble, etc, etc, etc.

And don't forget the cost of maintenance, with things like filling-in cracks, changing net straps, painting or strapping lines, etc, etc, etc.

Nearly twenty years ago, I was the treasurer of a local, grassroots, effort to reconstruct a local high school's three tennis courts, which had been condemned by the town for being unsafe, which, unfortunately, was true.  It cost only $10,000 for all three courts which included complete demolition of the old courts and grounds, and replacing the foundation, court, posts, nets, lines, surrounding fencing, and lights), etc, and that was with a discount from the contractor, whose daughter went to the school and played tennis, so I imagine the price of just one court has gone up, substantially, since then!
