Prince O3 Silver Oversize tennis racquet packs plenty of power, dampened and comfortable feel at impact and with generous sweetspot is forgiving from all areas of the court. \nThe open string pattern makes it spin friendly and at net this racquet offers a nice blend of power, stability and forgiveness. \nIt is suited for players who wants power.... I prefer this racquet

Right now there is no best woman tennis plyer. If you have to go for one then it is Maria Sharapova. If Serena Williams is heathly enough then she would be the best.

Justine rules!  Very consistent, number one on the ranking with the very least number of tournament played.\n\nAs for american player, there is Sharapova.  Not quite but otherwise the tennis world will remain american free for an other 3 years I would say.

I have a really nice Head racquet I bought from Dick's Sporting Goods. It's one of their Titanium Light series. It was only $60.

Good for power and control. But wilson racquets are really heavy. Try Prince, for a change?

There's a perfect racket for every player. It's not all marketing mumbo-jumbo. A correct racket is able to enhance your game just as much as an inappropriate racket can make you loose pwer or control and force you to alter your normal technique - often leading to elbow/shoulder/wrist injuries. The best way to choose the right racket for you is to TAKE YOUR TIME. Demo as many models as you can and use each one at least 3 or 4 hours of play before being bale to make a qualified decision on how good it really is for your style. If you are indeed an intermediate player, I would not recommend the N-Code 6 Federer racket. It is a racket designed for players who have huge swings (ie: lots of power) and need a frame that gives them a little more control. I suspect that the nCode 4.O might be more appropriate. \n\nAll the best

Hey It_girl, you're going to find that each person has their own preference for racquets. My preference is Wilson, but I admit that there are other brands that have good sticks as well (I also like Head and Babolot). That said, this is a question that is asked pretty frequently. Here's what I suggest:\n\nRULE #1: Don't buy a racquet before comparing it with others. Most tennis clubs and racquet stores will have some sort of demo program that will let you try out a variety of racquets for a few days for just a couple of bucks. Often, they'll let you put this money towards your futures purchase. If you're having a hard time finding a store that will let you demo a racquet, then check out the website included in the sources.\n\nRacquets come with different stiffness, weighting, stringing patterns and lengths. All that adds up to a lot of different choices and a lot of different feels. If you're a beginner, then you probably don't need to shell out much money yet for a racquet, just find something that feels good in your hand and use it until you want to try something new.\n\nIf you have loopy strokes and have no trouble adding your own power to your shots, then you want a racquet that isn't as stiff, and that is head-light--usually termed a control racquet. However, most of the population will find these racquets ill-suited for their skill. With that in mind, I'll mark some rules of thumb below to help you sort out the differences:\n\n1) Stiffness. The stiffer a racquet is, the more power it produces. You mentioned that your racquet isn't controllable. If you mean that you have a hard time keeping the ball in the court, then it's probably because your racquet is too stiff for your style of play.\n\n2) Weight. Heavier racquets are usually less stiff, because they allow you to generate more momentum behind the ball (as an analogy, think of the difference between a hammer and a sledge hammer; if a racquet has more weight to it, it can pack more of a punch). Most players will want a stick that falls in the middle of the pack to the light side.\n\n3) Head-heavy or head-light? Head-heavy racquets are usually those that allow you to generate more momentum (see #2). Pros will play with HH, while recreational will play with HL, because it requires less effort to hit the ball.\n\n4) Stringing patterns. Some racquest have more open stringing patterns while others have more dense patterns. You can judge by looking at how close together the strings are across the racquet face. Different patterns have a different feel and make it easier to apply spin and also give a larger sweet spot. You may want to see if you can find a pattern that feels better with your game.\n\n5) Lengths. Manufacturers make racquets that are an inch and a half longer than normal. These racquets give you more whip to your serves. Some people find them unweildy. I don't like playing with a longer stick, but you may.\n\n6) Feel. Each manufacturer has its own feel. I am a Wilson fan, because I love the feel of the racquet. You feel every aspect of the contact. I don't like Prince's feel, because it feels heavier and more dead to me, but that's just my opinion. Babolat racquets have a similar feel to Wilson. Try a bunch of manufacturers and find one that you like.\n\nAgain, demo a bunch of racquets (most sporting goods stores and tennis stores have a demo program; tennis warehouse has an online program that you may want to look into--I've included the link below). Don't buy anything unless you're sure that you like it enough to buy three.\n\nI hope that helps.

You should try Luxilon Big Banger Alu Power (with or without Rough - the textured version).  It's the new craze right now and it's being used by a lot of top pros (Federer on his mains, Safin, Hewitt on his mains, Agassi, Dementieva)  It's good because it is partially made out of polyester, which is normally very durable.  Other polyesters may feel a little boardy, but this string is a bit softer as long as you follow their stringing instructions. (10 lbs. less, I believe)  It also has a lot of spin on the ball because the strings practically don't move when you hit with them.  This adds to how much you can bite into the ball to produce that spin.\nWell, hope you have fun.

Depends on the surface: \n\nOn Grass Pete Sampras in his prime is the best has an edge over Federer, Sampras had the best serve in the game.\n\nOn Hard court, Sampras and Federer would be evenly matched. \n\nClay court: Many players. \n\nOverall: Sampras is the greatest for now, unless Federer beats his grand slams record.

It's more a question of which racquet is right for you. There are plenty of reviews at tenniswarehouse.com. I would also encourage you to demo any racquet before you buy it.
