The World's Highest And Spectacular Tennis Court..
 
World No. 1 Roger Federer and former No. 1 Andre Agassi took tennis to new heights on February 22, 2005, ascending nearly 700 feet (over 320 meters) to play a friendly match on the helipad at the luxurious Burj Al Arab hotel in Dubai. The hotel’s grass helipad, which is situated 692 feet (211 meters) high covers a surface area of 1,361 square feet (415 sq meters), was converted into a tennis court for the two players.

Standing 1,053 feet (321 meters) high on a man-made island, the majestic Burj Al Arab is one of the most recognizable hotels in the world. It's a only 7-star Hotel in the world.
