Tour Rackets: the Pro's Top Rackets for your Match
If you would like to treat yourself to a new racket, our shop is the place to look. You will find all current models by premium brands, plus your favourite tennis stars’ rackets. Listed as “tour rackets” at Tennis-Point, they are the best sporty rackets you can buy.
Usually, top brands like Wilson, Babolat, HEAD, Yonex, or Dunlop present new models every year. However, new tour rackets often closely resemble their predecessors, which is also due to the pro’s preferences: as soon as a player on tour has chosen a particular racket, they want to play this exact setup for as long as possible. Hence, baring minor technological tweaks and visual modifications, tour rackets largely remain the same.
The top brands’ premium models usually only change in colours, sometimes in minor details regarding materials or inlays. A premium racket’s shape and weight, on the other hand, remain untouched. By the way: of course, you can find Roger Federer’s, Rafael Nadal’s, or Serena William’s racket. Simultaneously, their respective manufacturers offer low-weight versions, which work particularly well for club and hobby players. It does make sense since pro players usually use rackets weighing up to 350 grams, which is a bit too heavy even for competitive club players.
What Makes a Tour Racket for Tennis?
As soon as a pro player signs with a brand, it will design a racket specifically to their preferences. When it comes to technology, those tour rackets take the minimalistic approach. They are roughly 69 centimetres long and their hitting surface measures 630 to 635 square centimetres. With a weight between 300 and 350 grams, they are rather grip heavy. This setup works for skilled players because they do not need additional weight to drop the racket head accurately before hitting the ball. To enhance control – a crucial feature for pro players – a tour racket’s frame is rather slim. When it comes to stringing, most pros choose a 16/19 or a classic 18/20 pattern.
- Classically shaped frame with Y-shaped area between grip and head
- Weighing more than 300 grams
- Slim frame profile
- Grip heavy
- Often an “endless series” in the manufacturers’ portfolio
How Do I Find a Tour Racket that Fits me Perfectly?
As much as one tour racket’s setup resembles the next, models made by different brands carry different characteristics and playing features. For example, Wilson frames rate as relatively rigid, which benefits control in particular. To enable maximum acceleration, Babolat aims for softer frames. And then, there is the stringing, which influences a racket’s characteristics tremendously. Therefore, it makes the most sense to test different models before you make your final pick.
The Most Popular Tour Racket Series at one Glance
American brand Wilson is well known for its legendary rackets. Just think of the aluminium frame T-2000, which helped Jimmy Connors create some buzz. Today, pro players like to play the series “Pro Staff” and “Blade,” which stand for high precision and speed. Babolat treats players with their “Pure Drive” and “Pure Strike” racket series, which enable great acceleration and excellent handling. When HEAD players pick up their “Radical” or “Speed” rackets, they benefit from a sporty setup that supports an aggressive play style. You do not need to stop there, though. Of course, we offer great rackets by many more brands who have built loyal fan bases all over the world in our shop.
Tip: When looking for a tour racket, you probably plan to play competitively. Hence, tournament players should check our “racket packages” section. There, you can buy popular tour rackets in packages of two plus a tournament bag. Buying just the equipment you need for club matches or the occasional tournament has never been easier. Plus, you are prepared, even if a string tears during an important match.
