Dwight Davis Tennis Center

Dwight Davis Tennis Center stands as St. Louis's primary public tennis hub, set inside historic Forest Park and named in honor of Davis Cup founder Dwight F. Davis. The facility features 18 regulation outdoor hard courts, complete with a dedicated stadium court configured for tournament finals and exhibitions. Acrylic playing surfaces are regularly resurfaced to provide consistent medium-pace bounce and reliable traction. Players gather here year-round for competitive USTA league matches, municipal ladders, casual weekend singles, and weekly doubles drills. Energy around the complex is straightforward and community-focused, prioritizing accessible court time without the barriers of private country club memberships. Floodlighting extends play well into the evening across the entire grid. Court reservations are easily secured online or handled in-person through the pro shop, with scheduled court maintenance ensuring reliable conditions for everyday play.
