依据ITF奥运官网的场馆介绍,比赛场地将在硬地举行。
The Olympic Tennis Centre, located in Barra Olympic Park, will play host to
the tennis event during the Rio 2016 Olympic Games. The surface for the event
will be hard court.

其实负责里约奥运网球项目的Walter Russo两年前就曾说要以快速场地举行奥运,
理由是奥运正值八月北美硬地赛季。
“Besides the possibility of hosting great sporting events, the general
public will also be able to use the courts later”, Walter Russo, Rio 2016™
Group Sport Manager responsible for Tennis, explained.
He also pointed out that the Olympic tournament will be held on fast courts
and that it will be worth 1,000 points in the international circuit and,
regarding this, it is only less than what the four Grand Slam tournaments
award.
“The Olympic Games will be celebrated in August when the international
calendar has great fast court tournaments and that is another positive point.
All the world's greatest players will be here”, he said.
