Head to Head<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Player Level Recommendations<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In my opinion, both rackets are best used by intermediate tennis players as beginners will find them too heavy, and more advanced players will want more control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are an advanced tennis player, then the Speed MP will suit you better as it offers more control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
