Abstract
In a tennis racket, longitudinal strings extending in a longitudinal direction and transverse strings extending in a transverse direction intersect each other to form a plurality of meshes. At a center, in the transverse direction, of a head, a ratio of an area St of a tip mesh located closest to a tip in the longitudinal direction relative to an area Sc of a center mesh located at a center in the longitudinal direction is not less than. The center mesh is formed in a rectangular shape having short sides in the longitudinal direction and long sides in the transverse direction. Preferably, from the center mesh to the tip mesh, an area of each mesh is set so as to be not larger than an area of a mesh adjacent thereto at a tip side.

A tennis racket in which longitudinal strings extending in a longitudinal direction and transverse strings extending in a transverse direction intersect each other to form a plurality of meshes, wherein
- at a center, in the transverse direction, of a head, a ratio of an area St of a tip mesh located closest to a tip in the longitudinal direction relative to an area Sc of a center mesh located at a center in the longitudinal direction is not less than 1.6, and
- the center mesh is formed in a rectangular shape having short sides in the longitudinal direction and long sides in the transverse direction.
