Best Power Tennis Racquets

Babolat Pure Drive 2025

Skill level: Intermediate to advanced
Why we love it: The Pure Drive is one of the most popular and versatile racquets ever made. This racquet delivers an easy learning curve to virtually any player who is looking to swing big and load the ball with pace and spin. Although it has inspired an army of clones, the Pure Drive is the undisputed king when it comes to light power frames. In this latest model, Babolat enhances comfort with an updated version of NF2 Tech, a dampening technology that uses flax fibers in the throat to smooth out harsh vibrations.

Babolat Pure Aero 98

Skill level: Advanced
Why we love it: While we think the Babolat Pure Aero Plus is bar none the most powerful in the already powerful and spin-friendly Aero line, sometimes you might want a little bit of control. That's where this Pure Aero 98 comes into play. Once called the Pure Aero VS, this Pure Aero 98 packs the power and spin of the Aero racquets, but it has a thinner beam and smaller head size that provides a bit of added control. With that added control comes the confidence to swing big, and our playtesters found a great balance of features. Get all of the details in our full review.

Solinco Blackout 300

Skill level: Intermediate to advanced
Why we love it: A leader in the tennis string market, Solinco breaks into the racquet market in a big way. The Blackout 300 delivers a powerful and surprisingly spin-friendly response. When racquets are powerful like this Blackout 300, it's tempting to overhit, but the response is definitely powerful and ideal for intermediate level players. Get all the details in our full review.

Yonex EZONE 100

Skill level: Intermediate to advanced
Why we love it: The Yonex EZONE 100 has earned a spot on many players' favorite lists for its all-around playability. It delivers controllable power, good feel and easy playability. With this version, Yonex introduces more dampening technologies and a redesigned beam geometry to boost stability. Those updates add a plusher feel to this all-around performer.

Wilson Ultra 100 v4

Skill level: Intermediate to advanced
Why we love it: The newest Ultra 100 delivers big in terms of power and spin, just like the versions before it. What we liked about the Ultra 100 v4 is improved ball pocketing and feel. If you're looking for easy power and spin, you're sure to find it here. Read our full review for more details on our playtesters' thoughts.

Prince Twistpower X100

Skill level: Intermediate to advanced
Why we love it: This Twistpower X100 delivers plenty of easy power and great feel, which can partly be attributed to this racquet's signature technology. The twisted shaft is easy to spot and is designed to help the racquet bend optimally. Our team found this racquet to be a standout in power and stability in the sub-11-ounce weight category. Be sure to check out our full review for all the details.

Head Boom MP

Skill level: Advanced beginner to intermediate
Why we love it: This Boom MP racquet blends a classic box beam shape for comfort and feel with a wide upper hoop for a big sweetspot and easy access to spin. A lighter 295-gram unstrung weight makes this racquet accessible to improving beginners through intermediate level players. It's maneuverable and overall user-friendly. Updated in 2024, this Boom MP features the Auxetic 2 technology to optimize feel.

Tecnifibre TFight 300

Ability level: Advanced beginner to advanced
Why we love it: This TFight 300 is a new model in the TFight range. It shares most of the same specs as the racquet endorsed by Iga Swiatek, the TFight 300S, but instead of a 98-square-inch head size, the TFight 300 has a more forgiving 100-square-inch head. That helps boost the power and forgiveness. This racquet might not be as powerful as the others in the "power" category, but it makes up for it with feel and control.

Babolat Pure Drive 110

Skill level: Beginner to intermediate
Why we love it: With the biggest head size in the Pure Drive line, the Pure Drive 110 packs plenty of power from a big sweetspot. A longer than standard length also ups the power factor. Ideal for beginner and intermediate players, this racquet's generous head size provides a large margin of error. This racquet is very user-friendly, and thanks to the thick and firm beam, even off-center shots have a powerful and crisp response.

Prince O3 Legacy 120

Skill level: Beginner to intermediate
Why it’s the best: The O3 Legacy 120 offers the most luxurious hitting experience in this guide. As such, it gives the beginner a large margin of error, ensuring that comfort and performance remain high even when contact is less than perfect. It also has Prince’s time-tested O3 Technology, which produces unmatched vibration dampening. If you’re looking for pure comfort and easy power, start here.
