Oversize

Oversize racquets range between 101-110 square inches and provide a much larger hitting area which is why they are typically marketed to beginners and intermediates, however they can be a little more “unruly” than a midsize frame.

It was taboo for a professional player to play with an oversize racquet until the late 80’s when Andre Agassi burst on the scene with his 110 oversize frame. After that, companies began making more racquets in the mid-plus to oversize range and pros quickly adopted them.

Super-oversize racquets were made popular to a niche market in the 70’s, however it was more gimmick than substance.

The bottom line is that both intermediate and advanced players can be successful using midsize to oversize racquets.
