Explanation:
Vēl tiek lietots arī vienkārši termins "cietais segums". Nezinu, vai tas ir viens un tas pats.

agree  biankonera: tenisīts ir viens no "cieto segumu" veidiem (tur vēl ietilpst asfalta un dažu citu materiālu segumi - atkarīgs no sporta veida)

agree  Janis Auzins: par tenisītu jā, bet "hard court" katrā ziņā nav tas pats, kas clay court, tenisā tas pat ir kaut kas diametrāli pretējs (federers - hard court, nadals - clay court)

Explanation:
"Materiāls - smalki samalti māla ķieģeļu graudi sporta laukumu, skrejceļu u. tml. segumu veidošanai." LLVV, 7-2. sēj. 497. lpp. (1991. g.) - padomju laikā allaž bija ar īso -its; nezinu, kāda šobrīd skaitās oficiāli pareizā versija.
