Martina Goes to Court
APRIL 1988

When Martina Navratilova decided to build a practice court to keep her game in top form she wanted the best. She decided it must be an exact replica of the center court at the U.S. Open in Flushing, N.Y., the venue many ranking players consider the best in the world. So, she called in The Weber Company, headed by Arnold Weber '47. Now she has her own Decourf II cushioned surface "in Dartmouth green." The Weber Company, based in Dallas, Tex., is a recognized leader in its field, with the Dallas Cowboys among its clients. "Not bad for an economics major," says Weber.
