The Babolat Pure Drive Wimbledon features the colours of the London Grand Slam in a combination of white and purple. You will also find the tournament logo on the frame.
A perfect racquet for Wimbledon fans looking for a powerful and maneuverable racquet.
Babolat adds another chapter to the game's most iconic modern player's racquet. As with previous versions of the Pure Drive, this update keeps the same easy learning curve and explosive spec profile that has attracted generations of players. Updated with Babolat's new HTR System, the Pure Drive's graphite layup has been reengineered for higher torsional rigidity, resulting in more efficient energy transfer to the ball. To help with vibration dampening, Babolat has devoted more space in the shaft to SWX Pure Feel, a thin and extremely flexible viscoelastic rubber that sits between the racquet's carbon layers. Additional features include FSI Power Technology, which optimizes the grommet system and string spacing for higher levels of power and spin.
On court, this racquet's explosive acceleration and spin-friendly targeting make it a dangerous weapon from the baseline. It also packs impressive all-court mobility, making it great for cranking winners on the run or charging into the front court and finishing points at net. Although not the most stable member in the Pure Dive franchise, this update won't disappoint in stock form, especially if you place a premium on quick handling. With incremental tweaks to the feel, the Pure Drive continues to be one of the best options for those who want a light and explosive player's racquet.
