Congrats to Fritz for winning his first masters title in Indian Wells. What racquet does Taylor Fritz use? Some players think 95 sq inch racquetsĀ (click to find the best ones on the market right now) are going instinct, but on the ATP tour there are still plenty of players using Wilson Six One 95s or HEAD PT57As to name two popular racquets. But what racquet does Taylor Fritz use? The answer is the HEAD IG Radical MP, which has the pro stock code TGT 260.3. The so-called IG or Innegra series from HEAD that came out around 2012 are still …

Why pro players love the Blade
Pro players love the Blade, no doubt. Of the current top 100 on the ATP tour, 16 use the Wilson Blade 98 in some form. The Wilson Blade 98 or the Blade Pro / h22 is one of the more popular frames on the tour. Just look at the list of players below. Why do pro players love the Blade? It’s a modern control racquet. It offers good precision and feel, while also giving a decent amount of power without becoming too heavy. The Blade 98 is not only a viable option for pros, intermediate to advanced players can also …
Is the 95 sq inch racquet going extinct? Not yet! Here are the best 95 sq inch racquets on the market today. Around 15-20 years ago, 95 sq inch racquets dominated. Racquets like the HEAD Pro Tour, Wilson Six One 95Ā and the Dunlop 200 Muscleweave were all used by both pros and club players. These days, the most popular racquet head sizes tend to vary between 98-100 sq inches. Oversize racquets are still rare among advanced players (although popular among beginners and veterans), but it’s clear that the average racquet head size have increased. That doesn’t mean there are no …
I have done videos about the best racquets for spin and power, but now it’s time to go through the best tennis racquets for spin and control. The best tennis racquets for spin and control is what many players and racquets experts would call a “modern racquet”. This has now become the most common intermediate-advanced racquet specification. These racquets are ideal for players that have good technique, hit with plenty of spin, but also like to get more control than what typical spin and power racquets produce. These spin and control racquets have a quite typical spec: 98 sq inch …
Donnay Unibody Racquets Review
Thanks to Racket1.no, I received three racquets for this Donnay Unibody racquets review. The Pro One 97, the Ā Formula 100 and the Allwood 102. Before I get into this Donnay Unibody racquets review, I want to point out that Donnay are known for taking arm comfort really seriously with the multiple cores inside the racquet to dampen vibrations. You can read about their philosophy around comfort frames on their official website. I have tested their racquets previously, actually all three models: Pro One 97, Formula 100Ā and Allwood 102, all with the Hexacore technology. The update, called Unibody, refers to that …
Toalson Forty-Love Racquet Review
Toalson is a relatively unknown Japanese brand of racquets and strings. Here is my Toalson Forty-Love Racquet Review. I was curious before this Toalson Forty-Love racquet review, because the specs really intrigued me. Imagine a Blade 98 with a 16×20 string pattern. The specs otherwise align really well with the popular line from Wilson. Specs Head size: 98 sq inches Weight: 305 grams unstrung (10.75 oz), mine is 325g strung with an overgrip String pattern: 16×20 Length: 27 inches Balance: 31.5 cm, mine is 32 cm strung with overgrip (6 pts HL) Beam width: 22 mm Stiffness: 64 RA unstrung, …
The Mubadala warm-up tournament in Abu Dhabi is where we can see pro players experiment with racquets. But Denis Shapovalov using the Ezone 98? It seems unlikely based on his history with the Yonex VCORE 95 (“Shapo” is using the SV 95 version). If you’re interested in the various different VCORE 95s, you can check out my comparison video/post here. In Mubadala people have spotted Denis Shapovalov using the Yonex Ezone 98 (as recently reviewed by yours truly). But is it really the Ezone 98 or just a paint job of his old VCORE 95? How do you find out …
The Best Racquets of 2021
I have worked on my list for the gear of the year and finally reached my conclusion on the best racquets of 2021. When I write “The best racquets of 2021”, I obviously don’t talk about it as an objective conclusion. It’s based on my personal preferences after testing pretty much everything and I also take some consideration for the massive amount of feedback (from fellow tennis nerds) I get on a daily basis. I think it’s important to point out that I excluded all racquets that were just design updates. There were some great ones among the ones I …
The HEAD Boom racquets have been revealed and here is my HEAD Boom MP review. A racquet that will appeal to a wide group of players. This HEAD Boom MP review is done over a longer period of time, since I’ve been able to play with the prototype racquet for quite a while. The racquet has a lower swing weight than what I usually like, so it took some time to dial in the string setup. In the Boom Pro, I have enjoyed HEAD Lynx Tour, but on my list of upcoming reviews is a new string from the German …
Yesterday I received a parcel containing several Toalson racquets and strings. This means it’s review time! Toalson is a relatively unknown brand on the tennis market, but they’ve been around for a while. This is what it says on their website: Toalson is a brand of TOA STRINGS CO.,LTD. With over 60 years of experience in manufacturing, sales and marketing of sports products Toals is a reliable world player in the sports market. What stands out about Toalson racquets? Well, for one, they’re made in Japan, not China. In times of Peng Shuai’s disappearanceĀ (something similar happened to Jack Ma when …
