Updated with a more flexible beam construction, this racquet combines classic control and feel with modern all-court speed
Prince adds another chapter to the Tour 100P. As with previous versions, the new ATS Tour 100P combines the laser-like precision of a dense string pattern with user-friendly speed and outstanding feel. For 2022 Prince has given the Tour 100P a more flexible beam, resulting in even better ball feedback and less shock to the tendons. Other updates include Anti-Torque System (ATS) which features Textreme and Twaron in both the shaft and at 10 and 2 o'clock in the upper hoop. The upshot is less frame torque at impact, resulting in a more powerful and stable hitting experience. From the baseline the Tour 100P combines surgical placement with a buttery feel at impact. Full swings yield predictable results and the sub-325 swingweight makes it easy to whip up spin or reset the point with an outstretched flick. There’s also enough stability and touch for effective volleying. All in all, this update to the Tour 100P keeps a good thing going. The more flexible beam construction is a nice bonus.

Surprising spin, powerI expected this racquet to play like a Speed Pro but in reality it plays closer to a Speed MP: power, lots of spin (a surprise out of an 18x20) and not nearly as controlled as a Speed Pro or Gravity Pro. Its standout feature is forgiveness, as it seems like the entire stringbed is a sweet spot. It is more controlled than the Speed MP but I would not call this a control racquet. Instead, I'd call it a tweener, right in the middle between control, power, and spin frames. It's a great choice for an all courter who slightly favors the baseline but it's not precise enough for a pure attacking net rusher.
Great ControlWhen I started my first drill session with this racquet, I was immediately hitting with better control, and more topspin, without a loss of power. I’m a 3.5 player and like to take full aggressive swings. My serves also seem to be more controlled and I feel like I have more power. I highly recommend this racquet.
Soft Feel, But What else?As comfortable a racquet as you'd ever want, but very low powered, difficult to get much sting on your shots, playability has to be considered average, but very easy on your body.
All around racquetThis racquet is very soft and dampened which may be a con for some people. So much so that the sound is odd, even with a dampener. But it is probably the most forgiving racquet I have ever used.
Plays greatNice feel and hard hitting. Great racquet.

This racquet is fantasticMain thing I love about this racquet is the ease of use. I don't play as often anymore, and this racquet is great for when I am playing a match after a two week break or not very warmed up. It is incredibly dampened, soft and has a thicker beam than previous models.

Not an expertI'm not an expert but I love the racquet already. It has better control than my previous racquet and does not feel heavy

Good Product & Great Service!I used to play with Prince racquets so when I found a great deal at the Tennis Warehouse, I was happy to purchase. The racquet experts are very knowledgeable but what is even better is the customer support. Something got screwed up with my order but the team did everything to remedy to ensure I got exactly what I wanted with a fantastic deal. What a great team!
One Hot RacquetThis racquet is off the charts amazing. Hands down, it is the best control racquet I've ever had. It plays extremely lively and responsive with beautiful balance and feel. The anti-torque system is for real, and it's head light so I can take big swings and generate lots of spin for placement with laser accuracy. It's also nimble at the net, and is forgiving enough to land drop shots when needed. This is a true player's racquet. For reference, I'm a 4.5 men's singles player.
Fantastic!Fantastic all around racquet. It excels in many areas and is not a one dimensional play. It also is very easy on the arm. It is more of a control oriented stick, but does not leave you wanting more power. I prefer this racquet over the previous iteration. I will continue to stick with this line of racquets. No need to switch from here.
