The Babolat Drive Black (2026) is a graphite tennis racquet focused on power and speed, with a 100 in² (645 cm²) head, 27 inches long, a 325 mm balance (6 points head-light) and a 16x19 string pattern. The Cortex system, above the handle, filters vibrations; Woofer technology extends ball contact time, with more power and spin; and the elliptical frame resists twisting and flexing.
