Sometimes a manufacturer releases a tennis racket that's a bit of an outlier. That's exactly what HEAD has achieved with the new SQUARED. Even a glance at the technical specifications makes it clear: HEAD is taking a slightly different approach here. The extremely head-heavy balance, designed to make the racket exceptionally maneuverable. This is complemented by an innovative dual-tube construction, an open string pattern, and plenty of comfort. The idea behind it: to accelerate as easily as possible, spin and speed with minimal effort , and enjoy a pleasant, arm-friendly feel. It sounds like an exciting combination – especially for players who want a straightforward racket on the court. We took a closer look at the HEAD SQUARED and reveal what's behind this unusual concept, its strengths, and who should consider it.
And now for the best part: we're giving away the HEAD SQUARED tennis racket, so you too can play with this uncomplicated racket offering plenty of spin and speed potential! Enter by November 23, 2026, and win this very special tennis racket from HEAD.
