Wilson Pro Staff Precision RXT 105 white

Forgiving of a beginner's mistakes: on a head of 105 sq in, a good shot comes off a wide part of the string bed. For a frame like this, 289 g is a solid weight. It keeps the racket steady at contact, damps unwanted vibration and puts power into the shot by itself.

The classic open 16x19 pattern balances control, power and spin. The frame is graphite composite. With its balance at 330 mm the mass is spread more evenly than on the Precision 103, which weighs 270 g and leans to the head at 350 mm.
