Expert Review
Positioned as a control frame, this racquet targets players seeking a specific balance of performance traits. The 98 in² head size prioritizes precision and cleaner contact. A stiffness rating of 70 RA results in a firmer, more responsive feel at impact. With an unstrung weight of 305 g, the frame adds stability through mass. The 16x19 string pattern (semi open) influences spin access and launch angle. Performance-wise, it scores 40/100 for power, 80/100 for spin, and 100/100 for control, outlining its on-court behavior. It is best suited for intermediate advanced players.
