What is a good rear-wheel wheelchair in the US?

Is Rod Laver Arena wheelchair accessible?

• My mom, sister and I are visiting Melbourne just in time for the start of the Australian Open. We thought it would be great if we could watch a match or two. I am concerned however for my mom as she has a bad knee so we push her in a wheelchair when we are traveling. She can navigate steps but she gets tired quite easily. So she can use the regular seats (However, I am also concerned about where to put the wheelchair if we do this). So, I was wondering if we need to do the disability booking for tickets for the three of us or I should just go ahead and purchase tickets on Ticketek and just push her as far as the wheelchair can go and just stow the wheelchair somewhere while we watch the match? Thanks.
