The Pure Strike 98 (18/20) is a racket we’d recommend for advanced players seeking ultimate control. The tighter 18/20 pattern really locks in the ball, giving you confidence to swing harder without sacrificing accuracy. The flax fibre technology is noticeable—impact feels smoother, reducing harsh vibrations while keeping feedback crisp. On court, it shines with stability against big hitters, making it a favourite for players who like to dictate play from the baseline with aggressive, flat strokes.
