What players say

Liked 4 sources

Reviewers agree the Prestige MP L delivers the classic Prestige feel (soft, pocketing, control-first) in a much lighter, more maneuverable 99 sq in / 16x19 package around 11.2oz strung. The tradeoff most testers flag is stability on returns and fast volleys, where the lighter frame gets pushed around, and a few call the stock power/spin ceiling modest for a flatter, harder-hitting game.

Best for

  • Players who want Prestige feel without the heavy swingweight
  • All-court players who value control and touch over raw power
  • Topspin and flat-ball hitters at the net and baseline
  • Players upgrading from a tweener into a control frame

Pros

  • Retains the plush, pocketing Prestige feel in a lighter frame
  • Easy to generate racquet head speed; effortless swing
  • Good access to spin and angles, control-oriented
  • Comfortable/arm-friendly with a solid, precise net game

Cons

  • Stability suffers on returns and fast-paced volleys
  • Power is modest stock and can feel underpowered for flatter hitters
  • 16x19 pattern gives a higher launch angle that can feel less controlled without adjusting strings
  • Demands fairly clean technique/footwork; off-center hits punished

Voices

Return of serve felt unstable with this racquet.

— James (Tennis Warehouse playtest team), Web

the most user-friendly Prestige I've ever tried

— Tiffani (Tennis Warehouse playtest team), Web

Great maneuverability allows for great access to spin and angles.

— Jason (Tennis Warehouse playtest team), Web

This racquet is soft on the arm, pockets the ball well, and despite being a control racquet, can offer some power and spin.

— Jonas Eriksson, Tennisnerd.net, Web

On this shot, I found the heavier racket slightly harder to move around, generating a weaker slice and spin in the process.
