Brands
Every racquet brand with verified US availability — 19 of them, counted October 2026. Tennis is an oligopoly: four brands (Wilson, Babolat, Head, Yonex) dominate every catalog, and the rest fight over the remainder. Nothing of consequence is missing from this list.

Flagged long tail (real, but no meaningful US retail): Pacific, Toalson, Karakal, Mantis, TenX, Slazenger, Black Knight, and bespoke builders Bosworth, Dahcor and ZUS Custom. Census correction (Oct 31, 2026): Wilson's Shift line was added after scored-review evidence surfaced it — the census is a living document and corrections are logged, not buried.
