It's built like an airplane, built for speed. The frame is shaped like a strut, thin edge to the v. ipd. The steel strings are like guy wires—less than half the thickness of gut, much stronger, more springy. The wind resistance of a Day ton Steel Racquet, measured in the wind tunnel of an airplane laboratory, was t.'i '?<■ lower than t\ that of standard wood-and-gut racquets. That extra energy is imparted to tlie ball, and gets it there faster, 207o faster. And that extra 207® gives you tiie jump on speedier players.
