Tennis Rackets the Pros Use

Brands chosen by the masters of the game

Anyone who's dreamed of playing tennis professionally has watched the game closely enough to mimic the pros. Some of us might buy the same sneakers Andre Agassi wore, others the same kind of outfits Venus Williams plays in. Still others might shop for the same racket used by Roger Federer, Andy Roddick, or Monica Seles. Who wouldn't want to be able to hit just like they do? And using a professional racket will undoubtedly help you improve your hitting game...right?

Grip size, head size, weight, balance, flexibility, and string tension are all important considerations when deciding which racket to buy. But when all is said and done, what we really want to know is just which racket our favorite professional uses. While few of us may actually possess the talent and drive required to play with the pros, we can all choose a professional racket and hope that doing so gets us one step closer to realizing an impossible dream. Below is a list of brands picked by some of the world's most formidable tennis talents.
