The Head Prestige is one of the best tennis racquets for control and feel on the market. Below, we’ll review the Head Prestige, including pros, cons, and different models of the racquet. Then, we’ll compare it to other tennis racquets to help you decide if the Prestige is right for you.

Review Summary & Ratings for the Head Prestige

The Head Prestige has been around for a long time and is known for its precise control and feel for advanced-level tennis players.

Head makes Prestige tennis racquets for intermediate to advanced tennis players. Their most recent Prestige model is from 2023.

Prestige 2023

See our ratings, plus the pros and cons of the Head Prestige below for a quick glance at how it performs compared to other tennis racquets.

Our Ratings for the Head Prestige

  • Groundstrokes: 8
  • Great advanced-level racquet for control & feel
  • Weight helps with power & stability against pace
  • Excellent stability on volleys
  • Comfortable frame on contact
  • Great touch around the net
  • Very stable returning against hard servers
  • Not great for beginner to intermediate players
  • Heavy frame can be difficult to handle

The Different Versions of the Head Prestige Tennis Racquet

The Head Prestige tennis racquet comes in several versions that vary in weight and size. Below is a list of the different Head Prestige racquets on the market today.

  • Head Prestige Pro
  • Head Prestige Tour
  • Head Prestige MP L

Prestige MP L 2023

We’ll review each version in more detail below.

What’s New with the 2023 Auxetic 2 Prestige?

Head has updated the Prestige line of racquets with the new Auxetic 2 technology, adding extra flexibility and comfort to the famed line. Fans of the Prestige will be happy that they still have a very classic feel that Head is known for. The specs for the Prestige Pro and Prestige Tour racquets are nearly identical to the previous version, but I did feel a little more power compared to the previous version.

  • Prestige Pro: Very similar with a little extra power
  • Prestige Tour: Also similar with a little extra power
  • Prestige MP L: Noticeable increase in power, spin, and maneuverability

The main difference in the 2023 Prestige line is with the Prestige MP L (formerly just the Prestige MP). This racquet has been updated from an 18×19 string pattern to a 16×19 pattern, providing a little extra power and spin. It is also a little bit lighter, dropping in weight to 11.2 ounces. Maneuverability has been slightly improved with a slight sacrifice in stability, but overall the updates make this racquet a little more accessible to those that prefer a lighter racquet that maintains the classic feel.

Head Prestige Pro Review

The Pro version is the most control-oriented Prestige racquet. It is one of the best 8 tennis racquets for control .

Head Prestige Pro Racquet Specifications

  • Weight: 11.9 oz. strung
  • Head Size: 98 square inches
  • Length: 27 inches
  • Balance: 320 mm
  • String Pattern: 18×20

Prestige Pro 2023

The Prestige Pro has a heavy frame and is best for advanced players only. This added weight helps with both power and stability when hitting against pace. Lower level players will have trouble handling this racquet.

The tight string pattern and classic 98 square inch frame give it excellent feel and control as well. This is makes the Prestige Pro great for players who can generate their own power. It’s also one of the best racquets on the market for volleys and feel shots around the net.

On-Court Performance Review of the Prestige Pro

The Prestige Pro is going to give you a precise feel on all shots so you can place the ball anywhere on the court.

  • On groundstrokes, the Prestige Pro will help you generate enough power, but with better control than most modern racquets.
  • On volleys, the stability of this racquet will stand out. You will feel in control on both defensive and attacking volleys. It will feel great on half-volleys as well. Because of its weight, it is more difficult to maneuver than some other racquets.
  • On returns, the stability will help against powerful first serves. Against second serves, you will be able to step in and hit with controlled power.
  • On serves, you won’t be able to create quite as much power. This racquet helps you least in this area, however, you should still find good control with your serve.

Head Prestige MP Tennis Racquet

Overall, the Head Prestige Pro is a great advanced tennis racquet . I would not recommend it for beginners or lower-level intermediate players.

Head Prestige Tour Review

The Prestige Tour tennis racquet is a smaller version of the racquet with a more open string pattern. It’s great for high-level players who want more spin and a smaller frame.

Head Prestige Tour Racquet Specifications

  • Weight: 11.7 oz. strung
  • Head Size: 95 square inches
  • Balance: 325 mm
  • String Pattern: 16×19

Prestige Tour 2023

The head size of the Prestige Tour makes it easier to handle than the Pro version. However, there is a smaller sweet spot on this racquet so I don’t recommend it for people who don’t play frequently.

The open string pattern helps add power and spin potential. Similar to the Pro version, the weight of the Prestige Tour helps with stability.

On-Court Performance Review of the Prestige Tour

The Prestige Tour is a great classic racquet for advanced players.

  • On groundstrokes, this racquet is stable and has good spin. You’ll move the ball around the court easily, but this frame isn’t as forgiving as other models.
  • On volleys, the Prestige Tour will be easy to handle and stable at the net. Doubles players who like to play from the net will love this racquet.
  • On returns, you will be able to control power and spin serves with this racquet, but you may struggle to hit deep in the court.
  • On serves, you will find a good combination of power, control, and spin depending on how you string the racquet. A looser tension will help add power.

Head Prestige MP L Review

The Prestige MP L is great for both intermediate and advanced players who want more control in their game.

Head Prestige MP L Racquet Specifications

  • Weight: 11.2 oz. strung
  • Head Size: 99 square inches

The Head Prestige MP L is for Intermediate & Advanced Skill Levels

The Prestige MP L is a great tennis racquet for high level intermediate and advanced players who want something a bit easier to handle.

Head Prestige MP Tennis Racquet

The 99 square inch frame gives this racquet a larger sweet spot. The balance point is moved slightly towards the head to add stability as well. Players who swing fast and freely will get the most out of this racquet.

The Prestige MP L is great for intermediate and advanced players who need a more forgiving racquet with good handling and excellent feel plus control.

This racquet won’t be great for players who need help with power. For that, I’d recommend reading our Head Extreme Review .

Neil Skupski serves with the Head Prestige tennis racquet

On-Court Performance Review of the Prestige MP L

The Prestige MP L is a well balanced racquet with a slight focus on feel and control.

  • On groundstrokes, this racquet is forgiving, stable, and has decent spin potential. You’ll move the ball around the court with ease, but won’t generate a ton of power.
  • On volleys, the Prestige MP L is easy to handle with great feel. You’ll have good touch and placement on volleys.
  • On returns, this racquet offers a generous sweet spot so you can take big swings. You’ll also be able to defend against hard serves.
  • On serves, you won’t find a ton of power, but should feel confident to hit your targets with spin and accuracy.

The Best Alternatives to the Head Prestige

Below are 3 other tennis racquets similar to the Head Prestige that you may want to consider.

  • Wilson Pro Staff – Another control-oriented, advanced tennis racquet, the Pro Staff has precise feel in a comfortable frame. It is also the racquet used by Roger Federer. It’s a bit more difficult to swing though.
  • Wilson Blade – A widely-used racquet on the pro tour, the Wilson Blade will offer better power and spin than the Prestige. This is a better option for intermediate players or older adults.
  • Babolat Pure Strike – The Pure Strike has more power than the Prestige and will have good feel from the baseline. It’s a great option for players who need a little more MPH.

My Experience Playing with the Head Prestige

I have played with several versions of the Prestige over the years because I love the classic feel they provide. I do think this is a good update, as the previous version was low-powered, even compared to most other control racquets. The new version does have a little more power without changing much else.

Prestige 2023

The Prestige is still one of the best racquets on the market for stability, control, and feel. It excels especially well at the net where control and feel are most important.

A slight increase in power also helped on the return, where this racquet is probably the weakest for me. The update helps handle big serves a little better, but is still not a shining point for this racquet.

This racquet is similar to the Wilson Pro Staff but with a bit more stability.

While I think the Prestige tennis racquet is a very formidable tennis racquet, I do still prefer my customized Yonex Vcore Pro (I have the 97HD version), which plays similarly but with a little more modern feel.

Head Tour Tennis Ball Review

The Head Tour ball is one of the most popular tennis balls in the amateur and professional game, alike – and for good reason too!

There’s nothing worse in tennis than your equipment letting you down.

This could be from being too lazy to get your racket strung regularly and watching your ball constantly sail out the back of the court, to playing with a racket far too heavy for your game and catching the ball constantly late, and it flying to the right.

Custom Fittings

Discover your perfect racket and string combo!

Another contributing factor to “frustrating tennis” is the ball.

Often the choice of ball is overlooked by club level players and organisations, but failure to recognise the benefits of a certain ball could be hurting you both in terms of performance and your finances.

In this article, we’ll take a look at the Head Tour (taking over from the Head ATP) ball and look into why we believe it should be the primary choice for your game.

10 out of 10

There are certainly a lot of tennis balls out there. But rest assured, over the years, we have literally tried them all!

A tennis ball’s ability to penetrate the court effectively and truly “pop” on serve is something we really appreciate at TheTennisBros.com.

There’s nothing more frustrating than making clean contact with a shot, only to find the ball dribbles off your string bed.

The Head Tour ball contains power in spades.

We feel it’s probably the most powerful ball out there, both before and after being smashed around for a couple of sets.

Tennis balls always lose some of their pop within a number of minutes on the tennis court, but the Head Tour balls remained reasonably steadfast in this aspect all the way up to to the end of the two-hour playtest.

Control is an aspect that we hear a lot of players talking about, whether that be in terms of their tennis racket or string.

The control aspect of a ball is something that isn’t discussed a lot, however.

How much control a tennis ball has will have a direct correlation with how easily it is able to take spin.

Additionally, a balls ability to receive spin potential is linked to the quality of the felt material, but also how well intact it is after a set of tennis or two.

You’re probably thinking I should be putting this information in the durability section, but a lot of these aspects, whether it be power, control or spin, do interconnect.

Due to the premium, professional level felt of the Head Tour Ball (and also, its great durability, which we’ll look at in a moment), its control was very good indeed.

We’ve heard some complaints from some of the more elderly female, lower level club players about these balls being “too bouncy”.

Personally, we didn’t find this to be anything near an issue and with good footwork and technique, no tennis ball out there will be “too bouncy”.

The Head Tour balls take spin extremely readily. When I use them, myself, I can literally hear the topspin fizzing off the ball!

It’s easy to press back your opponents with them, and when the stars align, you can deliver a fatal, heavy ball or flat winners without parallel.

Of course, your opponent can also hit the same type of shot at you, so be ready!

9 out of 10

Durability is one of the most important factors for club level players who do not want to be paying for brand new tennis balls every single session.

No tennis ball out there is perfectly durable. If it were, the manufacturers would be out of business as everyone could play with the same balls forever and not have to buy any again!

The Head Tour are the best it gets in terms of durability, though. They really do withstand a pounding.

Often, you’ll find you’ll get a good number of hits out of them until they become unplayable.

This is of stark contrast to the Dunlop Fort Balls, which fluff up virtually instantly!

Personally, I find a ball fluffing up during a match to be incredibly infuriating.

The moment this happens, they lose their ability to spin effectively, suddenly sending my topspin serves a foot long, instead of a foot inside the line, where they were landing previously.

When this happens, I feel much more vulnerable out there on the court as I’m fighting with a factor which is beyond my control and sometimes have to make small adjustments in my game to help deal with this.

The game of tennis requires so many small adjustments already, so don’t add in more complication by choosing an inferior tennis ball!

Another Reason Why Choosing The Right Ball Is Important

Failure to choose the right, or even a good quality tennis ball will, quite simply, hurt your bank account.

No tennis balls out there are “really cheap”, and if you choose a lower grade ball, you’ll have to replace them in practice far more often, costing you more money in the long run.

For a club level player, the Head Tour ball will last you many hits and help you cut down on some of those painfully high expenses tennis can bring!

Buy In Bulk

Do you buy your tennis balls can by can? Match by match? Training session by training session?

If you do, you’re missing a trick. I (Tom) never do this as I know I’m basically throwing away money.

The more tennis balls you buy at once from good tennis retailers, the cheaper each ball costs, and the more money you will save.

In England, where we are based, the Head Tour balls tend to average about ÂŁ1.25 a tennis ball/ ÂŁ5 for a can of 4.

These numbers don’t sound like they will break the bank, but when you’re buying one, two or even three cans a week for this price, the numbers soon add up.

Instead, it’s far better to bulk buy your balls from reputable online retailers, as you can get the cost per ball MUCH cheaper.

In England, providing I buy enough balls, I can get mine for about £0.80 a ball, which is insanely cheap in comparison! I tend to buy a year’s supply of balls at once to get them for the cheapest price I can.

Of course, the downside lies in the fact that you need a suitable place to store them if you do go for a larger bulk buy.

You’ll also need to make sure that you store the balls in a room with medium temperature and where conditions don’t increase and decrease too dramatically.

In our opinion, here, at TheTennisBros.com the Head Tour tennis ball is THE BEST ball on the market today.

It’s durable, powerful, easy to spin and all of these attributes contribute to maintaining a fair tennis match between opponents.

There’s a reason the pros use this ball, so be sure to give it a try!

All of the Head racquets are so good that, sometimes, it can be difficult to choose the right racquet for your skill and strength level.

Best Head Tennis Racquets – 2023 Reviews

Head Ti S6 - Best Overall Head Racquet

1. Head Ti S6 – Best Overall Head Racquet

Being the lightest, most powerful, arm-friendly, and easy to move, Head Ti S6 got first place in our list of best head tennis racquets . This frame performs well on the tennis court for its price than the competition.

Moreover, with only 252g of strung weight , Head Ti S6 feels easy on the arm so you can practice for longer without getting tired or muscle fatigue. This attracts beginner players who want to get some skills or even intermediate players who want to improve their game.

Head Ti S6 is designed to last longer, thanks to its graphite and titanium composition which makes it a durable and lightweight racquet.

In fact, power is something beginner and intermediate players crave, and the good news is, with 318 swing weight , Head Ti S6 helps generate extra power for powerful shots.

Struggling to prevent hitting a lot of off-center shots?

Head Ti S6 has the right solution for you, thanks to its 115 square inches oversized head which offers a very large sweet spot (hitting area) to handle off-center shots more efficiently.

Another problem most tennis players face, especially in hot weather, is the racquet keeps slipping from the hand.

Are you also a victim of this problem?

Well, Head Ti S6 has the solution to this problem as well. This racquet comes with a Head Cushion Cup grip which absorbs the sweat from your hand. This grip is made up of a soft rubber composite material, which prevents the racquet from slipping.

Being a big fan of a two-handed backhand shot, I enjoyed the extended length ( 27.5 inches ) which is a little longer than the standard length (27 inches). Plus, it offered extra reach on groundstrokes.

Shorter players also benefit from the extended length, especially on serve. There is an advantage for taller players as well, more spin and pace on serve.

If you’re comfortable with the standard length and want something more out of a racquet, we have reviewed 8 more head tennis racquets for you down below. So, keep reading.

Furthermore, the Head Ti S6 frame is 8pts head heavy(HH). What is the benefit for me?

Head Heavy means more weight is distributed toward the head which ensures more mass directly behind the ball during the contact. As a result, the ball bounces back towards the opponent player with more power.

Bottom Line

All in all, being a lightweight, powerful, easy to maneuver, and arm-friendly racquet, Head Ti S6 is the best choice for players looking to improve their skills or take their game to the next level.

In short, the features, this racquet has to offer, make it an ideal choice for beginners and intermediate tennis players.

Key Features

  • Lightweight
  • Easy to swing
  • Large Hitting Area
  • Powerful Racquet
  • Best for intermediate and beginner players

Head Ti S6 Specs

  • Larger Sweet Spot
  • Effortless Power
  • Easy to maneuver
  • Arm Friendly
  • No headcover included

Head Graphene 360 Radical MP - Best Controlled-Power Head Racquet

  • Head Graphene 360 Radical MP

2. Head Graphene 360 Radical MP – Best Controlled-Power Head Racquet

Not found in Head Ti S6, what you were looking for? No worries, we have another best head racquet for you, which is the Head Graphene 360 Radical MP .

What makes Graphene 360 Radical MP our 2nd recommendation is stability, maneuverability, and power which makes it a perfect choice for intermediate and advanced players .

The reason behind its incredible stability is Graphene 360 Technology . Through this technology, Graphene , an allotrope of carbon, is installed at 3, 9, and 12 o’clock around the hitting area. As a result, it improves maneuverability, power, and stability.

Are you enough impressed by this feature? Wait, Radical MP has something more interesting for you.

It comes with a Dynamic String Pattern (16×19), which means more condensed strings at the center which enhances control. Also, this string pattern enhances spin and playability.

Head Graphene 360 Radical MP is designed for all-court tournament players looking for a perfect combination of power and handling.

This racquet is the most versatile in the radical series with 312g strung weight, 27 inches length, and 6ts HL balance.

Moreover, radical MP comes with a Hydrosorb Pro grip, high sweat absorption, and thinner, which offers the perfect feel for the racquet.

Being endorsed by professional players Sloane Stephens and Taylor Fritz compels us to put this racquet at the second position on our list of ‘best head tennis racquets.

In short, Head Graphene 360 Radical MP is the best choice for intermediate to advanced-level players looking for more controllable power.

  • Easy to Swing
  • Spin Friendly
  • Perfect feel during the ball impact
  • Controllable Power

Head Graphene 360 Radical MP Specs

  • Best Control
  • Easy to Maneuver
  • Some Stability Issues
  • Head Graphene Speed S

3. Head Graphene Speed S – Best Maneuverable Head Racquet

Head Graphene 360 Speed S is another one of the best head racquets we have tested. Unlike the pro and MP versions, this racquet is much easier to handle, thanks to a light-strung weight of 292g .

This racquet best suits those players looking for an easy-to-maneuver yet powerful racquet. The reason behind its power is a thicker beam ( 25mm ) and a comparatively large sweet spot, 100 square inches .

What is the tradeoff of a thicker beam?

A thicker or wider beam means more material in the racquet which generates more power during the ball contact.

On the other hand, a racquet with a thick beam is a little bit stiffer which may not suit some players. However, if you are an experienced player, it won’t be a problem.

This kind of racquet is the best choice for beginner to intermediate-level players looking for a powerful and fast racquet.

Like Radical MP, Graphene is integrated into the racquet’s shaft and throat with weight distributed towards the handle and hoop. As a result, it gives a fast and crisp feel during the tennis ball impact.

Speed S is endorsed by Novak Djokovic and Alexander Zverev .

To improve the trampoline effect (elasticity of the racquet), the string gap is increased in this version. As a result, this effect can make the ball go wild and puzzle your opponent.

Moreover, to improve comfort, carbon fibers are integrated into both sides of the racquet to absorb vibration during ball impact.

New HEAD Gravity Racquets Review (2021)

head tour pro review

I have been play-testing the 2021 HEAD Gravity racquets, which is just a paint update. Here is my new HEAD Gravity racquets review.

To clarify: the new HEAD Gravity racquets review is me revisiting my previous review from 2019 . I really liked the racquets back then and was especially taken by the HEAD Gravity Pro, which I compare to the Prestige MP in this video . The Gravity Tour is also good, but I find the ball to sail a little bit with that racquet and I prefer the plow-through that the Pro model gives you. The Gravity MP is also a decent racquet, but it needs a bit of weight to play more stable. The Gravity S is, like all S-racquets from HEAD, more of a “tweener frame” with a generous amount of spin and power offered by the 24 mm beam.

If you want to buy the new HEAD Gravity racquets (or anything else tennis-related, please check out my affiliates Tennis Warehouse (US) , Tennis Warehouse Europe and Tennis Only (AUS) . You will save quite a bit of money if you can find the older paint job, released in 2019, but it depends on how important the cosmetics are to you.

I am focusing this post on the Gravity Pro and Tour, which are my preferred models. I will also do a some content with the Gravity S coming up and if you’re interested in how you can customize the Gravity S to be a more advanced-level weapon, check out my Patreon page .

head tour pro review

The new Gravity racquets have a similar design to the previous edition, but with a “fresher” color-way. Instead of the red and green, they now have the paint going from lime green to yellow on one side and baby-blue to purple on the other. I think it looks really nice, but racquet design is obviously highly subjective.

HEAD Gravity Pro

HEAD Gravity Tour

Head size:  100 sq inches Length: 27 in (standard) Weight: 305g / 10.75 oz Balance: 32 cm / 7 pts HL Beam: 22 mm String pattern: 18×20 Stiffness: 65 RA

My strung specs with HEAD Lynx Tour (m) and HEAD Hawk Touch (c) were: 327.2g, 32.3 cm / 6 pts HL, 319 SW

HEAD Gravity MP

Head size:  100 sq inches Length: 27 in (standard) Weight:  295g / 10.4 oz Balance: 32.5 cm / 5 pts HL Beam: 22 mm String pattern: 16×20 Stiffness: 65 RA

HEAD Gravity S

Head size:  104 sq inches Length: 27 in (standard) Weight:  285 g / 10.1 oz Balance: 32.5 cm / 5 pts HL Beam: 24 mm String pattern: 16×20 Stiffness: 68 RA

How do they play?

The Gravity line is made for baseline players who want more control than your average tweener, but more forgivness than a Prestige or Pro Staff racquet. The sweet spot is bigger with the Gravity line of racquets and that the tear drop shape and 100 sq inch head size helps stability and plow-through. I have heard many advanced level players that have found a fitting partner in the Gravity Pro since it is controlled, but despite a relatively maneuverable weight, offers impressive plow-through.

That’s one reason I like the Pro the best, but I tend to be a sucker for the thin beam of racquets like the Prestige.

The Gravity Tour is easier to use, offers more free power and a whippier response, but is not quite as controlled and “pancaking” of the ball as the Pro. Players with more top spin-inspired strokes will prefer the Tour or MP, but the trajectory with all Gravity racquets except the S, is pretty low. This line is more geared towards players that like a lower margin over the net.

The MP and the Tour offers plenty of room for customization, while the Pro is ready to be used by NTRP 4.5 and upwards without any tinkering. The Pro can be a lot to handle with swing weights going from 330 up to 340+ depending on your string choice.

If you’re interested, we can go through each model and its pros and cons in an upcoming review series. Or at least compare them to other racquets. If you’re interested in any specific comparisons, please comment below!

Hi Jonas, try adding some weight on the Pro model at the racket grip. It will change the balance (aim at 31.5), this will make it easier to swing and will not add practically any SW.

Take care & as always remember to play some tennis.

Yes, I don’t mind the balance on the Gravity Pro – it’s information geared towards other players mainly.

Please could you compare the Head Gravity range with the Dunlop CX range? I am a doubles player and full time coach!

Many Thanks

Hi Katie, they are both control-oriented racquets – the CX 200 and the Gravity Tour offer similar amounts of power/control. The CX 200 Tour is more comparable to the Gravity Pro – but the CX 200 Tour needs weight added. The CX 400 Tour is more similar in power to the Gravity S and will give you a good amount of power and spin for free. Both the CX line and the HEAD Gravity are good series of a racquets for players looking for control. I hope this helps.

hi, thanks for the good reviews. I bought the gravity pro, mainly for the control. During the testing period I was winning marches more easily that with other racquets. After buying the racquet, I struggled with many strings, as the it was feeling like a board, vey stiff, and lacking spin potential. Coming from a 16×18 racquet, the change was a bit difficult. I like to add loads of top spin, but with such low power racquet, getting enough top spin and ball speed requires such arm speed that my tendons begun to hurt. Knowing that 18×20 Pattern don’t use the strings up as quickly as the 16×18, I tried the polyfibre venom, gauge 20 (1.15). The result is excellent. Powerful serve with a fluid movement. From the base line, incredible spin, the ball bouncing very high. Control is still good so that volleys are precise. I can play around 6 hours before breaking, which is average for me. I wanted to share my experience, and asking you if you had similar experience with the gravity pro, and if you knew other string also offering a good combination with this racquet.

Please note that the gravity pro beam is 20mm, not 22mm.

Yes, thanks. Fixed it.

Hi Jonas, thanks for revisiting the Gravity line. In your opinion does a TF40 305 play more like the Tour than Pro given beam width? I’m also assuming they’re comparable sticks. Keep up the great work.

I tested the TF 40 305 and CX 200 after my initial hit with the Gravity Pro. Still went with the Gravity Pro, for exactly the reasons Jonas mentioned, the control is superb and it is so stable through impact. Massive pancakes! ? TF40 is great but the balance is rather different, also more muted and can be a little more erratic off the stringbed. It’s closer to the BB Pure Strike V3 than the Gravity Pro IMO.

I tried weighting up the handle, but even with 9g it didn’t make enough of a difference in terms of maneuverability for me, and pushing further towards 360g static weight gets a bit heavy for me and most rec players.

Thank you very much for all your help Jonas. Your racket reviews are excellent. Would be great if you could do an article on doubles rackets?

Thanks Manie, impressive if Pro’s control trumps that of the TF40. I will demo it and the Tour.

Looks like your GPro and GTour are quite a bit off-spec balance wise. The GPro is not headlight enough, hence the higher than expected swingweight. In contrast, the GTour is too headlight, with a correspondingly low swingweight.

Hello! First of all thanks for all your reviews and your content. You help us a lot! I wanted to ask you if you find the gravity pro a good choice for someone with a one handed backhand and an all court style of play.

Hi Mario, Thanks! Yes, the Gravity Pro is a good racquet for the all-court player who likes to get control and stability.

My recommendation is always to demo though! Regards / Jonas

Great site Jonas! Coming from a 330g 6.1 95 strung with Luxilon 4g at 25kg, I am looking for a bit more comfort and flexibility and lower static weight, without compromising stability and control. Betwwen Gravity Pro and Tour I am tending toward Tour with lead tape and a leather grip and Solinco Tour Bite at 24kg. Any thoughts on how such a setup based would compare to Pro?

I think you might found the Tour a little bit more difficult to control compared to the Pro, but on the other hand it’s easier to use and customize. Hard to say how you would find it compared to the 6.1 95 – the head size difference can be quite a contrast.

Hi. How come you got 327 g strung weight for Pro? Should be ~337 g.

Weights differ due to quality control issues and string choices.

I’ve got a 2020 Gravity MP and a new 2021 Gravity MP. Same strings, same tension. For some reason, new one just wobbles much more. Anyone with the same issue?

The specs are likely different, it’s a question of quality control.

Can you compare to Angell tc100?

The Angell is more muted in feel than the Gravity, but they’re both comfortable racquets. You get a bit more power with the TC 100 than the Gravity MP/Tour.

Hi Jonas! Congratulations for your work! If you had to choose between Yonex VCore Pro 100 and Head Gravity tour, what would be your choice? Thanks!

Hey Nikos, I prefer the feel of the Gravity Tour personally. A bit less muted.

Titanium Always Pan Pro review: an impressive addition to any cook’s kitchen

Pip Ellwood-Hughes

If you’ve got a social media account, the chances are that you’ve heard of Our Place. Co-founded by Shiza Shahid, the company is putting sustainability and the joy of bringing people together through cooking at the heart of what they do. The product you’ve likely seen is the Always Pan, a 10-in-1 toxin free ceramic non-stick pan that replaces a number of other kitchen items. The Always Pan has been heavily advertised across social media and Selena Gomez is a celebrity partner for the company with her own range of products.

For its latest release Our Place has levelled-up the Always Pan for the Titanium Always Pan Pro . Modelled on the original Always Pan, the Titanium Always Pan Pro features ground-breaking NoCo technology. What is that I hear you ask? It’s the first-ever nonstick technology that’s coating free and made without PFAS (aka forever chemicals). The nonstick is created by a lotus pan that covers the inside of the pan and it’s activated by using a teaspoon of oil, warmed up in the pan for 90 seconds.

Titanium Always Pan Pro

Like the Always Pan, the Titanium Always Pan Pro comes with a Nesting Beechwood Spatula, which sits on the pan handle, avoiding any mess while cooking. The product is able to be used in the oven up to 300 degrees centigrade and you can clean it in your dishwasher. Perhaps most impressively is that the pan is incredibly lightweight at only 1.5kg. The Titanium Always Pro Pan features a tri-ply construction with a stainless-steel exterior, an aluminium core and titanium interior.

But what is it like to cook with? I tested the Titanium Always Pan Pro over the course of a week to see how it coped with a variety of different foods. Following the instructions, I added oil and heated the pan for 90 seconds, before lowering the temperature before adding any food. For my first test I made scrambled eggs, keen to see if the pan is as easy to clean as it claims. I have to say I was very impressed. Unlike other pans I’ve used, there were no spots that heated hotter than others, which meant that I got a very even cook across the eggs. Once I removed them from the pan, I noticed that remnants had stuck inside the lotus pattern and I thought it was going to be hard work to scrub clean. It wasn’t at all. Using the spatula much of the remnants lifted out with ease and adding warm water cleared out the rest.

For my second test, I decided to fry hamburgers. Surely this would make the pan impossible (or at least harder) to clean? My hamburgers, like the scrambled eggs, cooked very evenly with a nice crisp on the outside. The insides were cooked perfectly and the pan didn’t dry them out. I didn’t clean the pan right away, instead leaving it for an hour while I ate. As before though, it proved very easy to clean with the grease and remnants lifting out easily with a bit of soapy warm water.

Titanium Always Pan Pro

My final test was with tofu. I’ve cooked tofu many times in the Always Pan but it’s never crisped up as well as it did in my previous frying pan (in part due to the advice not to use high heat). The Titanium Always Pro Pan is a totally different beast, and it crisped up the tofu quickly on a medium heat. It also nicely simmered the sauce once added and cooked the vegetables through without burning them. I was really impressed.

Having put the Titanium Always Pan Pro through its paces, I have to say that I’m impressed. While the design is the same, pretty much, as the Always Pan, I would say that the cooking experience is superior. The pan is able to withstand much hotter temperatures than the original Always Pan and I found it particularly good for frying foods whether that be meat, tofu or vegetables. Perhaps what the Always Pan has over it, is the basket that comes inside allowing you to cook noodles, but honestly you don’t really need that. The Titanium Always Pan Pro comes with a lifetime guarantee and honestly, it’s the best pan I’ve used in the kitchen.

Masters winners: Who has won the most Green Jackets at Augusta National?

Editor's note: Follow live coverage of the Masters, leaderboard, highlights and more.

Tiger Woods still has his sights set on catching the Golden Bear.

Woods, a five-time Masters champion , is looking to make his fifth attempt to match Jack Nicklaus' record of six Green Jackets when he tees it up this year at Augusta National Golf Club.

The 88th Masters Tournament gets underway on Thursday, April 11, at the storied course in Augusta, Georgia.

From the moment the legendary Bobby Jones found the gorgeous parcel of land, hired legendary course designer Alister MacKenzie and established the first "Augusta National Invitation Tournament," what later became known as The Masters has been the site of some of golf's most memorable moments.

Here's a look at some of the many golfers who have made The Masters so special:

  • Jack Nicklaus leads the way with six Masters victories. He won his first Green Jacket in 1963. Nicklaus won back-to-back titles in 1965 and 1966, prevailed again in 1972 and 1975, then pulled off one of golf's greatest final-round comebacks in 1986.
  • Tiger Woods is second with five Masters titles. Woods burst onto the scene as a 21-year-old in 1997, winning that year by a record 12 strokes. He also claimed consecutive titles in 2001 and 2002, added another in 2005, and authored a career comeback of his own by winning for the fifth time in 2019.
  • Arnold Palmer is right behind with four Masters championships (1958, 1960, 1962, 1964).
  • Tied with three Masters wins: Jimmy Demaret , Gary Player , Sam Snead , Nick Faldo and Phil Mickelson .

Back-to-back Masters winners

In addition to Jack Nicklaus (1965, 1966) and Tiger Woods (2001, 2002), Nick Faldo (1989, 1990) is the only other golfer to successfully defend his Masters title.

Best players to never win The Masters

The golfer with the most major titles that doesn't include The Masters is Walter Hagen with 11. Hagen won the British Open four times, U.S. Open twice and the PGA Championship five times from 1914-29.

Bobby Jones and Harry Vardon each won seven majors, but those all came before the first Masters in 1934.

Lee Trevino won the British Open, U.S. Open and PGA twice each, but never donned the Green Jacket at Augusta.

Perhaps the most famous non-winner at Augusta is Greg Norman. The Australian was the foil to Nicklaus' miraculous comeback in 1986, losing by one stroke. The following year, he lost in a three-way playoff with Seve Ballesteros and eventual champion Larry Mize. His greatest disappointment at Augusta came in 1996, when he began the final round with a six-stroke lead, but shot a 6-over 78 and finished second to Nick Faldo.

Among active golfers, Brooks Koepka (5 majors) and Rory McIlroy (4 majors) are the most prominent players who have yet to win at Augusta National.

Who won the 2023 Masters?

Jon Rahm became just the second Spanish player to win two different majors, joining Seve Ballesteros, when he won last year's Masters.

Rahm, who entered the final round trailing Brooks Koepka by two strokes, shot a 3-under 69 in the final round to finish 12-under for the tournament and claim his Green Jacket. It was Rahm's first Masters win and second major tournament victory, the first coming at the 2021 U.S. Open.

Head Gravity Pro 2023 Racquet Review

Wilson Clash 100 Racquet Main Image

Precision, stability, feel and control. These are all words our playtest team used to describe the updated Head Gravity Pro . With slight tweaks for 2023, the Gravity Pro gets Auxetic technology, which is designed to make racquets flex optimally at impact. Sporting one of the rounder teardrop shapes in the Head lineup and a 100-square-inch head size, this 315-gram (unstrung) racquet is responsive and spin-friendly even with a tighter 18x20 string pattern. Our team was impressed with this update in every way, from the cosmetic to the playability. Everyone had praise for the Gravity Pro from the baseline and the net, and negative comments were few and far between. The slight critiques crept in on serves, where a few members of the team craved a tad more access to spin, especially on second serves. All in all, the Gravity Pro felt stable and performed well for all four of our playtesters, who all possess different games and strategies on the court. This Gravity Pro 2023 remains a modern, control-oriented racquet ideal for intermediate to advanced players looking to control the court with precision.

  • Feels even more solid
  • Can be hard to generate spin on serves

Groundstrokes - Score: 88

Chris , who has always been a big fan of the plush feel of the Gravity Pro , was happy to report that this updated racquet felt super plush and very comfortable. He began, "I hit the new Gravity Pro side by side with the previous version, and I found this to be a solid update. My targeting was better with this new version, and I was also hitting more penetrating shots. The specs felt similar, so maneuverability felt unchanged, but the sensation at contact was more solid. I found a similar amount of pace and spin on my shots, but with the new version I was able to push opponents off the baseline better."

"For me, the Gravity Pro has always been a great weapon from the baseline, with lots of mass powering up this frame and a tight string pattern to help tame that power and shot depth," added Mark . "This update follows suit. The 20-mm beam provides tons of good feedback and groundstroke control. Topspin was easily developed, especially when the Gravity Pro was paired with an edgy polyester string like Lynx Tour. Per usual, the 18x20 pattern turned my backhand slice into a more offensive shot. Of any playtest in memory, the new Gravity Pro ended up being one of the easiest racquets for me to play with from the back court."

A solid response, good control and nice feel were all traits that Troy noted when hitting with this updated Gravity Pro. He said, "As far as the weight and swingweight, the specs of this racquet line up well with what I like, and it's ready to go in stock form. If I were to make any adjustments or customization, I would likely either add a leather grip or install some tungsten putty inside the handle to make a slightly more head-light feel. I loved hitting flatter shots with this racquet, and my slice backhand was amazing. That said, I would have liked a bit more open string pattern when it came to hitting topspin or cross-court angles. In a dream world, I would try this solid, thin-beam Gravity Pro with a string pattern like the Gravity MP; I would enjoy that very much. But then again, I am a big fan of the 2023 Radical Pro, so I guess I could just pick that one."

Thin-beamed, 18x20 racquets normally just aren't Michelle's style, but she attacked this playtest with enthusiasm. She explained, "While it felt like it had been a minute since I picked up a Gravity racquet, I quickly remembered that I enjoyed this model when it debuted a few years back. The added Auxetic technology in this update did much of what it has done to the rest of the Head racquet families, it made it feel even more solid. I loved that the new Gravity Pro swung fluidly and still had good mass behind the ball; it felt stable. I felt like the racquet was a bit firmer at the tip with more flex in the throat, so I didn't notice a noodly sensation, which is what often turns me away from racquets with thinner beams. I was confident taking big cuts and found great precision. The swingweight is right where I like it, just above 330 — manageable, yet still fast coming through the ball. I'm not looking for loads of spin, so I didn't ever feel limited by the tighter string pattern. I will say that every now and then I felt like I was missing the sweetspot and wanted to get a better hold of the ball, but the stringbed was forgiving, and even an off-center hit was often rewarded with the ball remaining in play. For my linear shots, it worked really well; I felt precise and had just the right amount of control."

head tour pro review

Volleys - Score: 86

Our playtesters were very satisfied with the Gravity Pro when they came to the net, and all of them found the racquet to feel accurate and solid, with not a single complaint from the team. The set of specs that complemented Mark's ground game had the exact same effect at net. He said, "Crisp and clean is how I would describe my volley with this racquet in hand."

This racquet possessed a very solid feel for Troy when he was hitting volleys. He said, "I did not mind the 18x20 pattern when it came to volleys, and I actually preferred the added ball feel and connection to my shots. I very rarely would implement topspin on a volley, so the dense pattern is more beneficial on the slight backspin or slice I put on my volleys. It felt very plush, and due to the overall mass and swingweight, it was easy to volley the ball deep. That hefty feel made it easy to hit my volleys with solid pace, while keeping the ball low off the bounce. Maneuverability was decent in stock form, but as I mentioned above, I would probably give it a leather grip or a bit more tail weight for a more head-light feel."

"At net, the Gravity Pro was stable enough to punch volleys away," said Michelle . "I had no issues finding touch as well. I really have no complaints volleying with this racquet. There wasn't any fluttering, and I had good pinpoint precision. I could stick the shot, swing at the shot or even add some touch to the shot and get rewarded. It's versatile and effective."

Chris tuned into how accurate the racquet felt at the net. He explained, "I was able to place my volleys with confidence. I loved the stability of the Gravity Pro at impact. The feel was comfortable and plush, yet I also felt very connected to my shots. All of my volleys were working well with this racquet, and I had zero complaints."

head tour pro review

Serves - Score: 84

The weight of the Gravity Pro helped our playtesters serve effectively. They all felt precise and accurate, though they did note a lack of access to spin at times, especially on second serves. Troy leaned into the predictability of this racquet with his serve and found a good amount of control. He described, "The more roundish head shape helped on spin serves. However, it didn't really give me any boost or enhance my serve in any particular way; what you can put in will be what you get out performance-wise. I didn't feel as precise as I typically do with a 95 or 97 square inch head size, but the 18x20 pattern helped me to muster some extra control out of the 100 square inch head. The mass and swingweight of this racquet felt great when I hit flat serves — I felt like I could pancake the ball easily and get some decent pace on my flat first serve. The 18x20 pattern didn't give me quite as much bite on my kick and slice serves; I was left wanting a bit more bite and grip on the ball that I usually find from a more open pattern."

"I was dialed into my serve targets with the Gravity Pro, and I enjoyed hitting T serves," added Michelle . "I wouldn't say I was hitting my hardest serves, but I did feel really consistent with this Gravity Pro. It was one of those racquets that I used effectively, but it didn't add a ton of anything extra to my first or second serves."

The serve was another shot where Chris could put the mass of the Gravity Pro to good use. He explained, "I liked the way the racquet plowed through the ball to help me drive serves with power. The dense stringbed provided the control I needed to keep those powerful shots on target, and the plush response kept everything comfortable."

As much as Mark loved the performance of Head's update to the Gravity Pro for both groundstrokes and volleys, he enjoyed serving with it even more! He said, "My serves were consistently falling in. I could access enough pace and spin to prevent my opponent from going into attack mode."

head tour pro review

Returns - Score: 88

With its 330-plus swingweight, solid feel and 18x20 string pattern, this Gravity Pro was a great returning racquet for our team. Michelle felt in command and connected to her returns. Our big hitter commented, "I could take big swings and go for my low-percentage shots with confidence. I could accelerate through the ball, and I never felt the racquet flutter or wobble. The swingweight wasn't too demanding, so I could also access nice angles from my returns! And I could effectively block back big first serves to keep me in the point. This was a great racquet to return with!"

Thanks to the solid response of the Gravity Pro, Chris was able to drive through his returns with a lot of confidence. He said, "When defending against bigger incoming serves, I appreciated how much depth I could still find from this solid racquet. I liked the forgiving feel because it allowed me to swing big and not worry if I was slightly off the sweetspot."

Based on the specs, Mark predicted that this would be a hard racquet for him to return with. He was happy to be mistaken here, saying, "Sometimes it feels great to be wrong. I was able to effectively return serves using both slice and topspin."

What made this racquet click for Troy on returns was the solid, stable feel and large sweetspot. He said, "The hefty feel and the round head shape made this racquet feel forgiving on my returns. I could keep my swings rather short and still get a decent amount of depth on my returns. The rounder 100-square-inch head size also made for a large sweetspot, so even if I was stretched out or slightly off balance, I felt like I was contacting the ball consistently. My slice backhand return worked well for me in doubles. I was finding easy plow through and a smooth feel on contact."

Overall - Score: 86

Chris - "More precision than the previous version, very comfortable, great feel and a nice blend of control with plow through power."

Mark - "I have to say this latest version of the Gravity Pro has not changed much, except for the new Auxetic technology, which improves the feel without diminishing power. Although I do not have an obvious favorite shot to hit with it, I am especially confident on serve. Lastly, how could I not mention how awesome the new, more business-like cosmetic is to my eyes?"

Troy - "This is a solid, stable and comfortable racquet. The new cosmetic is pretty clean and classy — a little less loud than previous iterations."

Michelle - "The Gravity Pro isn't a racquet I would normally grab, but that doesn't mean I didn't like it! I appreciate what it has to offer to big hitters like me who crave control and confidence! It feels even more solid and stable than the previous version and offers a great blend of controllable power from all areas of the court."

Chris - "None. For me the Gravity Pro is the next best Head racquet compared to my Speed Pro."

Mark - "I do not have any official dislikes to aim at the new Head Gravity Pro, but if I were asked about refinements, I would suggest maybe using the 16x20 pattern of the Gravity MP or the slightly wider spread of their Speed Pro's 18x20 for the next evolution of this already awesome frame."

Troy - "I would likely add a bit more handle weight for a slightly more head-light feel. If I had the option, I would have liked to try this thin-beam Gravity Pro with a more open pattern, such as the 16x20 pattern on the Gravity MP."

Michelle - "I really don't have anything that stood out as a dislike."

Comparing the racquet to others they've tried, our testers said:

Chris - "Very much a Prestige for the modern player, the Gravity Pro manages to tap into the DNA of classic Head racquets to provide lots of precision and feel while offering the power and sweetspot location to fit more modern strokes. The rounder hoop also gives me the sense that I have more racquet face to play with when looking to cut the ball sharply for spin. Compared to the previous Gravity Pro, this racquet is easy to transition to since the specs are spot on. The biggest change for me was an improvement in my accuracy with this update."

Mark - "The Gravity Pros are more alike than not, so the transition from one to another will be pretty seamless. Weight-wise, the Gravity Pro's 315-gram unstrung weight is also close to Head's Radical Pro, the current ProKennex Ki Q + 5 Pro, the Yonex EZONE 98 Tour and Tecnifibre's TFight 315 or TF40 315."

Troy - "I think it will be a pretty easy transition from the previous iteration of the Gravity Pro (Graphene 360+). I feel like the Auxetic technology works well in most of the new Head racquet lines, but I'm not sure if this model needed it; it was already such a pure and solid racquet, but it still plays very well overall. I would also compare this Gravity Pro to the Prince Phantom 100X 18x20 and Tecnifibre TF40 305 18x20. Of the current Head racquets, having a 98 head size and a more open pattern, I would likely go with the Radical Pro 2023 as my favorite offering from Head."

Michelle - "This Head Gravity Pro is one of those racquets that I really enjoy hitting with, but it's a spec I don't tend to choose, which reminds me of a few other racquets in families where I might tend to prefer the open pattern versus the tighter pattern. This Gravity Pro reminds me a bit of the Prince ATS Textreme Tour 100P. There's similar feel, with a nice plush sweetspot but not too noodly. It also reminds me of a more control-oriented Radical Pro."

    Some player ask about the grip shape. Most HEAD racquets come with the rounder pallets these days (TK82S), but the HEAD Pro Tour 2.0 has the more rectangular TK82 pallet. My specs for this play-test were: 339g, 32 cm balance (7 pts HL) and 327.5 SW. With a dampener, I am sure it climbed up to 330.
