In 2018, the ATP circuit has hosted a total of 42 tournaments through July 22nd. Here at Tennis Plaza, we wanted to know which racquet and which brand has won the most ATP Titles.
As you may know, there are four levels of tournaments in the ATP circuit, the 250’s, 500’s, 1000’s and the Grand Slams. The tournaments vary in importance in accordance with their number (so and ATP 1000 tournament is more important than a 250), culminating with the four Grand Slams of the year. In 2018, through July 22nd, there’s been a total of 42 tournaments played. Of those 42, there has been 27 ATP 250’s, seven ATP 500’s, five Masters 1000’s, and three (of the four) Grand Slams.
Let’s explore which racquet and brand has won the most tournaments!
Racquet With The Most Tournaments
Just by guessing, most people would assume that either a Babolat or a Wilson racquet would be the most triumphant, since they are the most used brands in the circuit. Well those assumptions are correct. The racquet with the most trophies, so far, are the Babolat Pure Aero (6) and the Wilson Pro Staff (6). It comes as no surprise that these two racquets have the most championships. It also doesn’t come as a surprise that these are the racquets that Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer use, respectively. So the most winning racquets in this first half of the year are the two obvious ones, but which racquets complete the podium? Here is a breakdown and a ranking by brand:
