The Match is Adidas's most versatile entry-level racket. It has a hybrid shape, between round and teardrop, a centered sweet spot and balance slightly toward the head, which gives a bit more power on volleys and smashes. The face is fiberglass and the core is EVA Soft Performance, with a soft feel and good ball output. It weighs 360 to 375 g, is 38 mm thick, has a smooth surface and 55 holes. The Structural Reinforcement strengthens the frame. Recommended for beginners who want to progress to a more offensive game.

How the RR Score was calculated

CriterionWeightScore
Specs65%57
Approval from players35%87

The RR Score is not yet a precise figure. It summarizes the data we have today (specs and reviews) and changes as more information comes in. A low score does not mean the racquet is bad and does not reflect its technical quality: often it is just missing data or reviews. The specs combine several sources and may have discrepancies: check the manufacturer's website and the store where you buy.
