Description
Created in tribute to one of the best to ever step onto the court, the Arthur Ashe Competition 2025 racket celebrates the 50th anniversary of Ashe’s legendary 1975 triumph on the grass courts of London. The Legacy Edition design combines the performance of HEAD’s modern frames with old-school looks, wrapping a Boom MP in a metallic silver colour scheme inspired by the iconic “Competition 2” that Ashe used in the 1975 final. One of the first non-wooden rackets to be developed, the original Competition was made in collaboration with Ashe, who went on to win many important matches with its various iterations at the highest level of the sport. As it’s based on the Boom, the Competition 2025 is equipped with the latest tech to help you reach a level worthy of Ashe’s legacy. Positioned in the yoke and the end of the grip, Auxetic 2.0 enhances the feel of the racket, providing accurate feedback as you strike the ball to give you confidence with every type of shot. There’s plenty of power potential too, with Directional Drilling and Power Grommets enlarging the sweetspot and optimising string movement to turn good attempts into surefire winners. Other details include a classic Arthur Ashe Competition signoff at the throat, while the heritage-style grip is in Ashe’s traditional brown. And while stocks last, each racket comes with a retro green-and-white head cover for the ultimate nostalgia hit.

Tennis Racket Profile Guide

Power

Power rackets feature stiffer constructions and thicker frames that provide easy depth and added pace with minimal effort, helping players generate power on every shot. Compared to spin rackets—another popular category in today’s game—they tend to produce lower shot trajectories while still delivering strong baseline depth without requiring as much physical input. These rackets are often available in 98 square inch head sizes for players who want a balance of power and control, while the more standard 100 square inch versions offer maximum forgiveness.
