<p>A tennis racquet comprises a hand grip (14) having a length less than 40% of the total length of the racquet and a frame (10) having a generally elliptical bowed portion with ends comprising spaced throat portions (12, 12') and shaft portions (13, 13') extending to the hand grip, the ends being connected together only at the hand grip or at the hand grip and by a spacer (15) spaced from it and weighing less than 29 grams. The playing head occupies substantially all the area of the frame member, as limited by the spacer if present, and has interlaced longitudinal and transverse strings (17, 16), the tension in the longitudinal strings being about 5% to 25% greater than that in the transverse strings. <IMAGE></p> |
