Wilson US Open Extra Duty Tennis Balls

Product Information

Comments: I have been playing for about 3 years, not very long, but I've had time to get the feel of different kinds of tennis balls. Last year I decided to do a science fair project on what kind of tennis ball retains its bounce the best. After playing with Penn, Wilson and Slazenger, I found that on average Wilson only loses about 2 inches of bounce per match, which I made 15 minutes long, while Slazenger lost about 5 inches and Penn 13. so trust me Wilson is the best. I’ve used the Head Tour Ball several times, and it’s a decent ball. They are relatively firm when fresh from the can, so they do fly early on, but durability is excellent. When he was younger, Fritz played mixed doubles in New York, another problematic aspect of the contrasting balls. The mixed doubles competition uses the regular duty balls at the US Open, meaning those who play both men’s and mixed doubles must switch between different balls in the same tournament. One of the few things that the vast majority of professional tennis players agree on is that constantly playing with different balls increases the risk of injuries. I feel, it's really hard to control [the women's balls], but everybody has same conditions, so we are trying to deal with that. I don't get why they are different, honestly." Comments: These balls have terrible durability. After one set, I lost all the fuzz on the ball. This was consistent in the 3 cans of balls I used. Other than the durability, however, the ball is very playable when fresh, although a bit light, but still good. In short, a good ball with horrible durability.

If one court has Wilson US Open Balls marked with a 2, and the other courts are numbered 4, it is easy to distinguish between.

The WTA, ATP and USTA constantly work closely with players and partners to determine all aspects of the US Open, including the type of tennis balls that they recommend. Any decision to change or update what has been used in the past is made with the utmost thought and deliberation, after considering the recommendations of the tours and their player councils. Regarding claims of a ball's durability; I really think that the court surface that a person plays on has more impact on a ball's life than anything. There are some terribly rough asphalt hard court surfaces that players use that will wear any ball out after one set, and there are also some relatively smooth cement surfaces that let you use the same balls for two matches.

Wilson: A high-quality core with limited or no fillers, premium woven felt, and a whole lot of love! But last year, some players on the women's side — led by No. 1 Iga Swiatek — began to publicly wonder why they were playing regular duty balls at the US Open while the men played extra duty. Beyond the general theme of equality, Swiatek felt that the regular duty balls were light and difficult to control. Despite her complaints, she ended up winning the tournament. Shop recreational tennis balls and kids tennis balls, available in single 3 or 4-ball cans, as well as cases of 18 and 24. Comments: I've played in many tournaments with these balls, and they do wonders for my power game in the first set, because they offer a lot of zip when they are new, but in the second, they run out of zip a little, and get slow. That's just my take, but you should definitely try it for yourself.The women use Wilson US Open regular duty balls in New York, while the men use Wilson US Open extra duty balls. They play different based on the conditions, the court surface, where they're coming in, what country you're in, who's playing with them. It literally is all over the place." Jessica Pegula, the US No 1, believes they yield more errors: “I feel like the first couple weeks there are a lot of double faults, because the balls are just kind of flying a bit more,” she said. The answer — especially at the top level of tennis — is quite a bit. The brand of ball, the weave of the felt, the way they bounce and how they react after getting hit a bunch of times are all variables that have an impact on how matches are played.

Comments: A nice ball, I will be critical though. These balls don't seem to last quite as long as the Penn Masters Series Balls. They aren't as bright either. At the same price, go for the Penn Masters Series or the Penn ATP Balls.Comments: I really like this brand of ball, someone accidentally sent me a case of these instead of green dot balls but they let me keep this case too. I enjoyed playing with my free balls. And there does seem to be some evidence that power-reliant players are having success here. On the men's side, quarterfinalists tilt heavily toward explosive power in the likes of Andrey Rublev, Ben Shelton, Taylor Fritz and Carlos Alcaraz. Same thing on the women’s side with Jelena Ostapenko and Madison Keys — two of the heaviest hitters on the WTA tour — matching their best Grand Slam runs of the year. I think that figuring it out for yourself on the court is a massive part of our sport. I just feel like we're losing an important part of tennis."
