Prestige Pro 2023
The Prestige Pro 2023 is one of the finest control frames in the history of the game — a racket that has been a fixture on tour since 1987 and remains the gold standard for precision. Auxetic 2.0 technology is now in both the bridge and the end of the grip for an addictive, precise flex with real-time feel feedback. The 20mm constant beam, 98 sq in head, and 18x20 string pattern combine to create a frame that asks everything of its player — and rewards everything in return. The elongated shaft design adds flex and feel to the formula.

Our review
This is a racket for players who have been playing for years and know exactly what they want. The feel is unmatched. The demands are real. Worth every penny if you qualify.
Editorial note
The Prestige Pro 2023 is one of the greatest control frames ever made. If you can swing it, there is nothing on the market that offers this combination of precision, feel, and feedback.
