The weapon of choice for former world No.1 Jelena Jankovic

Racket review: Prince Red LS 105


 

(Originally published on 10/09/15)

Proof that tennis is a game of different strokes for different folks, the Prince Red LS 105 is the current racket of choice of former world No.1 Jelena Jankovic – so who better to tell you about it?

β€œI just love it,” the Serbian told tennishead in 2014. β€œIt gives me great control and precision, a lot of power and it is very loyal. It is a very dependable racket.”

The same goes for us mere amateurs – a generous sweet spot and dampened feel thanks to those O3 ports, the holes in the frame where the grommet strip would normally be, make this a solid choice for improvers, while there is some serious whip to be found for serves and overheads.
