One of the first acts of Charles II after his restoration in 1660 was to order the extensive refitting of the Tudor tennis court.

This included the laying of a new tile floor, the remodelling of the galleries and repairs to the roof.

The interlaced initials above the net on the wall opposite the corridors are, however, not those of Charles but of William III and Mary II (1689–1702).

The court hosts the annual Champions Trophy, part of the qualifying series for the Real Tennis World Championship.
