The AXS 165 Teardrop is the speed version of the new AXS line. At 165 g unstrung and with a teardrop shape, it combines a high sweet spot with a head that is light to swing, which makes it easier to generate power through swing speed. It keeps the 13 mm head-heavy balance and the 3K, M40 and T-700 carbon construction with Solid Frame of the other AXS racquets. It is explosive and responsive for those who like to attack with quick shots.

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.
