We are already in mid-May 2025, and the ATP rankings have taken shape in some very interesting ways. The top players continue to impress with their performances, showing consistency, development, and determination. Every match now plays a role in the race for No.1, where small details make the difference, and one of the most decisive details is racket choice. A racket is not just a tool, it is part of a player’s identity. It is also important to note that many, if not most, professional players use pro stock versions of commercial rackets, not the exact models available in retail stores.
Let’s take a look at the rackets used by the current top five players in the world, starting from number five and working our way up to No.1.
