Choosing the right string tension is critical for maximizing your racquet's performance. Whether you play tennis, badminton, or squash, string tension affects your power, control, comfort, and overall feel.

Our Instant Racquet Tension Calculator quickly recommends the perfect tension based on your sport, skill level, string type, comfort preference, and racquet weight.

Why String Tension Matters in Tennis, Badminton, and Squash

String tension directly impacts how your racquet feels and performs. Higher tension usually offers better control and precision, while lower tension gives you more power and a softer feel.

  • For tennis players, adjusting your tension by even a few pounds can drastically change your topspin, control, and injury risk.
  • In badminton, tighter strings favor control players, while looser strings help aggressive smashers.
  • Squash racquets require precise stringing to balance speed and touch around the court.
