Tokyo Olympics: Racket Brands represented in Tennis

Olympic Games are different from all other sport (and tennis) events we see throughout the year. For example, the sponsors are not visible during the matches or interviews with players afterward.

The only possible presentation of sponsors is at the equipment used during the sports. Tennis racket manufacturers have a significant advantage over others. Their products will be present directly at the courts.

Almost all manufacturers provide rackets with the names on the frames (e.g., Wilson, Yonex), or at least they will bear distinctive design (Babolat).

Here is the overview of all racket brands present at Tokyo in singles. There will be 64 players in men and ladies’ singles.
