Taylor Fritz has chosen to use the racket makers who also back the likes of Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray.

Swedish sports experts, Head make some of the best rackets in the world but which one is Taylor Fritz in love with.

While Fritz endorses the Head Graphene 360+ Radical he actually uses the Head Innegra Radical MP or TGT 260.3 pro stock with some modifications.

Fritz uses a racket frame that dates all the way back to 2012 but Head’s classic rackets are still some of the best available.

He has chosen a light and easy to manoeuvre racket as Fritz is one of the more powerful players on tour.

For strings he goes with Natural Gut mains and Head Hawk crosses.

Fritz has also enjoyed some lucrative brand partnerships in the past alongside the support of loyal sponsors.

It’s perhaps unsurprising that he has been signed to Nike for some time with the sportswear giants providing his apparel from head to toe.

Fritz is among a handful of top players to wear the Nike Air Zoom Vapor Pro tennis shoes.

Fritz has enjoyed a relationship with luxury watchmaker Rolex since September 2019 with their timepieces featuring in all his biggest title celebrations.

He has partnered with Optimum Nutrition since 2021 and also has a commercial partnership with Lavazza Coffee and is an investor in eSports infrastructure company ReKT Global.

Fritz has been helped in establishing himself as a professional by having a father who knows the game well.

He says that it takes time for most players to get their game to the level where they can challenge for big titles, and the extra pressure players are under to establish themselves hampers their progress.

Fritz has taken a measured approach to getting involved in activities away from the court.

He says that he wished he could have found a way to block that all out and to focus on what was really important.

“I felt like it was something that I maybe wasn’t ready for when I was 18, 19, and I think I was too young at the time to properly deal with it. I think it probably hurt me,” Fritz said in an interview with Ubi Tennis.

“I see it hurt a lot of young players because one of the most dangerous things that you can be dealing with in sports is having a lot of expectations and having a lot of pressure. It stops you from sometimes playing and competing as freely as you would like.”

Fritz feels that players would progress much faster if they are not burdened with unrealistic expectations held by people who donn’t necessarily have insight into where their game is at.

“I wish I would have cared a lot less about all that stuff when I was younger, and I think that I could have had the progress in my game that I’ve had in the last couple of years maybe sooner,” Fritz added.
