There is no balanced schedule possible for 4 weeks.  If possible play the 5 weeks below.

     court 1          court 2      byes
 (10  9 v  8  1)  (5  4 v  6  3)  ( 7  2)
 ( 6 10 v  9  2)  (1  5 v  7  4)  ( 8  3)
 ( 7  6 v 10  3)  (2  1 v  8  5)  ( 9  4)
 ( 8  7 v  6  4)  (3  2 v  9  1)  (10  5)
 ( 9  8 v  7  5)  (4  3 v 10  2)  ( 6  1)


then it will be the case that everyone has the same number of games (4 games and 1 bye each).  Otherwise play only the first 4 weeks.
