I thought you wanted to tag just the wall and not the pitch.

3 of the 4 tennis=wall are combined with normal leisure=pitch here:
https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/511533704

I think this is ok. We don't even use an extra leisure tag for table 
tennis tables (it does not mean I would be against an extra leisure tag 
for table tennis tables,  but it is rarely used).

leisure=practice_pitch is mainly used in combination with baseball,. 
only 2 times with tennis.

There are 3 leisure=pitch + pitch=training_wall. I would rather use 
this.  sport=tennis was not tagged there, I would probably add i it. 
(There is also 1  leisure=pitch + pitch=training_wall+ sport=tennis)
