Yeah , you're right.The French Open is played on clay , Wimbledon is played on grass , and the US Open and Australian Open are played on hardcourts.While the Us Open is played on Deco turf II , the Australian Open courts use Rebound Ace.
"Rebound Ace
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Used at the Australian Open, Rebound Ace is a cushioned tennis hardcourt comprised of layers of polyurethane rubber, fiberglass, and other materials on top of an asphalt base. It is manufactured by Rebound Ace Sports Pty Ltd , based in Brisbane, Australia. Many tennis players argue that it gets very sticky with high temperatures, increasing the chances of injuries.
It is similar to DecoTurf, which is used at the US Open.

The Australian Open is played natural hard-court, while the US Open is played on artificial / synthetic hard-court. The courts of Australian Open are much slower and produce less bounce than those of the USA.
