About this deal

Penn is a well-established name in the tennis world, and although they're perhaps more common in the USA, their balls are available in the UK as well at a slightly higher cost.

Grass courts are well known thanks to the famous Wimbledon Tournament, but not too many everyday players play on them as they aren’t very common on public courts. Once you consider yourself an advanced player, unsurprisingly, you’ll be wanting to invest in some of the highest quality balls. These will be made of the best quality materials, meaning they can cope with the hard-hitting players of this level, as well as maintaining a consistent pace and bounce. A recommendation service that carefully researches each product and consults with experts across many disciplines. The below is just my opinion based on spending a small fortune on balls over the years. It’s not scientific in terms of weights, firmness, how much the felt fluffs, etc., it’s purely my experience and how I think they play.Below are what I consider the best tennis balls you can play with right now. With over 150 ITF approved balls, this is by no means an exhaustive list, but they are all balls I’ve tried several times and can recommend. The reason they are numbered is to stop them from getting mixed up when you are playing on courts that are side by side. Sadly it’s not one that will be available for those of you in the United States or outside of Europe but for those of you are; I’d recommend giving it a go.

Formerly the official ATP ball before Dunlop signed a new deal, the Penn Marathon (or Penn Tour) is widely used in the United States. In Europe, the balls are sold under the Head brand, but they are the same ball. As a result, it’s quite a nice ball to control and takes spin well, so it’s easy to see why it’s the ATP Ball. For the nine games they are used for at the pro level, the Dunlop ATP Ball plays very well.https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3668334/amp/New-balls-Inside-factory-distinctive-fluffy-yellow-fabric-cover-Wimbledon-tennis-balls-100-years.html Pressurised balls are sold in airtight containers to maintain the pressure inside the ball which needs to be 14-16 lbs for a proper bounce. For some reason the Fort All Court divides opinion, some players love it, others look away in disgust when you take a fresh can from your bag and instead insist on using their own Slazenger Wimbledon balls. Even though they’re both made in the same factory in the Philippines 😁 When they are fresh from the cardboard tube, I find them hard and challenging to play with, but 20 minutes in, they improve. Overall I find them slightly inconsistent with bounce, but I would recommend giving them a go as the durability makes them an excellent choice for players who don’t want to keep buying fresh cans week in and week out. Kids between 5 and 8 years get a perfect start with the pressureless HEAD T.I.P. RED, 75% slower than a standard tennis ball for easy fun.
