Babolat Pure Drive+ Gen11 Unstrung

Extended to 700 mm (27.5 in), the frame swings the head faster on serves and overheads and adds a little reach on the return. The trade-off is at the net, where a long racket comes round more slowly. Its 300 g keeps it stable, 72 RA adds pace to the shot, and 100 sq in of head strung 16x19 leaves room for spin.

ELLIPTIC GEOMETRY, FSI POWER, HTR SYSTEM and NF²-TECH 2.0, Syntec Pro base grip, balance 320 mm. Sold unstrung; the recommended tension is 21-25 kg, with RPM Blast, RPM Team or RPM Hurricane and Pro Tour 2.0 or My Overgrip.
