PARIS: At the heart of the Jardin des Serres botanical exhibition, Roland Garros's new Simonne Mathieu court offers a green experience in tennis' capital of red dirt.

The court is surrounded by greenhouses featuring rare and tropical plants, giving fans and players a cocooning feel at the east end of Roland Garros. "It's a double experience, it's not just about sports, you can take the time to see the plants before watching a match. The whole thing is really pleasant and relaxing," said Jean-Pierre, a 50-year-old spectator who declined to give his last name.
