Andrei Rublev is a current top 10 player and a ten-time Grand Slam quarter-finalist, but what is Andrei Rublev’s racquet?
Andrei Rublev’s racquet is the HEAD Gravity Pro. He strings it with Luxilon Adrenaline strings.
Rublev’s racquet specs are 365 grams, 31 cm balance and 341 SW strung approx. Players often adjust their specs during their career, but this checks out from when he moved from the Wilson Six One 95 to the Gravity Pro.

He is top 50 and is actually trying the ultra tour
Looks like 18×20? So, if the Gravity Pro then with the stock string pattern.
A little surprised.
Hi Jonas,
could you specify a bit, what are the indications that Rublev is using Head Gravity Pro?
P.S.: Thanks for your work, this is one of the best tennis websites.
Hi Pavel,
Thanks! Well, first of all, there are pics where blackout is so badly done that you can see the Gravity colors underneath.
Second of all, the head shape is a definite tell, as well as the bumper design. On close inspection of some pics, you see that the beam is thin (so not a Gravity Tour for example) and if you count the strings you can tell that it is 18×20. You need to do some amateur detective work, but in this case, the Gravity has a very specific look which makes it easier.
Hope this helps. Cheers / Jonas
Patrick, sorry, could you explain what you mean by “top 50” (he is currently No. 15) and how do you know he is trying Wilson Ultra Tour (if this was the case, why would he use blacked-out racket?)?
Hi Jonas,
Thank you! I studied the pics and have the same impression as you.
Pavel
It’s 100% NOT Head Gravity. Just look on grommets and throat connection with head https://revistatenis.uol.com.br/media/andrey_rublev_vs_auger_alissime_adelaide.jpg
Hi Stanislav, I play with Head Gravity PRO and just now have it in my hand comparing it with the picture – I don’t see differences as regards grommets and connection with the head. What exactly do you mean?

Actually you’re right, it’s gravity pro. All gravities has a different grommets and drills. Rublev’s model is PRO.
Thanks for the picture, great comparison.
8 months later and he’s still playing with the blacked out Gravity Pro. Interesting huh?
Great work.
Thanks
Is it not a prostock head stick with gravity paint? Sorely he’s not using stock rackets? Silicone in the handle, lead and probably better quality control!?
It’s a Gravity Pro pro stock (yes, better QC and customized).
