  • Hi!I measure 10.5 cm.What grip should I use?In Europan please

  • @theundertaker242

    That measures between a 1 and 2. Closer to a 1.

  • @tenniswarehouse uhmm.. what does 1 and 2 mean? I measure the same but all the grips are like 4 1/2 and stuff..

  • @ivan0797, European to US grip size translates as follows: 1 = 4 1/8. 2 = 4 1/4. 3 = 4 3/8. etc.

  • @sandrapacopaco,

    If you plan on using an overgrip all of the time, you should consider moving down to allow for the added thickness.

  • @tenniswarehouse what about 4 3/8 ?  = 11.11 cm + the torna grip it would be like 11.4 right?

  • Thinking of the lighter Wilson Prostaff 100 BLX by the way. Thanks in advance for any help...

  • So what do you think should I go for? 5 maybe? My first raquet was a babolat aero strike and that was often coming off my hand (maybe because it was slighlty head heavy?)

    My current is a Head Speed MP 315 and that never goes off my hand, maybe cause it's 6pt head light. But this racquet has cause me golfer's elbow (inside of the elbow). Somebody said it's because I'm not relaxed on impact. Well I know my tecqnique needs some work! So what should I do?

  • Hi,

    I would appreciate your help. I've been playing for 3 years now and even if I always thought it was too small for me I have been using size 4 (4 1/2) with overgrip. I thought it can't be that I need the max available (5/8) as I'm not that tall & I thought if I need 5 then what do tall guys use?! (I'm 1.82m or 5.11-6'')).

    I am going to buy a new racquet now so I was revisiting the grip size and found your video and method with the ruler. So I measured it and for me this distance is 5 1/8!

    4 1/2
