As used by Sam Stosur, Jerzy Janowicz & Elena Vesnina.

Replacing the Pure Storm, Babolat Pure Control 98 is a major upgrade in Babolat's line-up of control rackets to meet the demands of players who rely on a precision-based game, manoeuvring their opponent. Pure Control GT enables these players not only to withstand the power of the modern game, but arms them with the speed to catch the ball on the rise and return every shot with interest.

Babolat Pure Control series fuses traditional elements with GT and Woofer technology to offer a unique solution of control and power for aggressive strikers of the ball. It features a traditional box frame favoured for control and precision. Furthermore, the frame is made from FlexCarbon, which uses lower density of carbon fibre for a flexible frame that delivers precision akin to old classic frames.

The shaft features Graphite Tungsten weave that provides enhanced feel and power. This next-generation material is also provides greater stiffness required for rackets to remain stable against power and speed of modern tennis game. Woofer technology in the frame meanwhile allows energy to travel more freely along the strings, which would otherwise be lost into the grommets, resulting in power level similar to larger head-size.
