ABSTRACT:
A tennis racquet comprising a continuous convex bow containing a plurality of interlaced strings attached under tension, and a handle formed integrally with the bow. The racquet is free of a yoke and a shaft and has a sweet spot located relatively closer to the distal end of the racquet. The racquet exhibits improved stiffness, bending moments and leverage in a racquet having a relatively large head size. The racquet has a higher relative swing weight than other light-weight, large-head racquets by reducing weight at the center of the racquet by eliminating the yoke and throat, thereby providing improved power.
