Rank #2 in Best Tennis Rackets 2026: 9 Ranked, and Why the 'Pair' Count Misleads
Wilson Tour Slam Adult Tennis Racket
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Wilson Tour Slam Adult Tennis Racket is number 2 in our tennis racket guide. It sells for £42.29, holds 4.6 stars from 3,357 ratings, and arrives pre-strung. The listing's Skill Level field says Beginner, and three of the four reviews shown here talk about beginners.
Where this fiche gets loose is in its own numbers. The Item Weight field reads 454 g, which is heavy for a frame of this kind, yet the reviews split on it: one buyer calls it "really lightweight", another says it is "a little heavier than I'd hoped". The frame material is given three different ways across three fields — Carbon Fiber, Composite and Alloy. The Item Dimensions field reads 10.8L x 10.8W centimetres, a square that cannot be the length of a racket. And the Included Components field is one word: "Racket". One reviewer notes there is no cover in the box. Compare that with the sets in this guide, where the word "pair" is doing a lot of work the component list does not back up.
None of the figures on this page come from our own testing. Every number, bullet and buyer comment is taken from the Amazon listing and the reviews left on it.

Questions people ask
How much does the Wilson Tour Slam weigh?
The listing's Item Weight field says 454 g. That is the only weight figure the Wilson Tour Slam gives, and the reviews disagree with each other over how it feels, so 454 g is the number to check against the frame you actually receive.
What comes in the box with the Wilson Tour Slam?
The Included Components field for the Wilson Tour Slam says "Racket" and nothing else. One reviewer notes it does not come with a cover. No bag, balls or overgrip are named anywhere in the listing.
Is the Wilson Tour Slam suitable for a beginner?
The listing's Skill Level field says Beginner, and three of the four reviews shown here describe it as good or excellent for a beginner. One of those buyers adds that they still need to practise their swings.
Is the Wilson Tour Slam pre-strung?
Yes. The last bullet in the Wilson Tour Slam listing reads "Pre-strung", and the String Color field gives Black/Green.
What grip size does the Wilson Tour Slam come in?
The Size field reads "Grip Size 2 - 4 1/4"", and the separate Grip Size field repeats 4 1/4 inches. No other grip size appears in the listing.
Why do the Wilson Tour Slam's specs contradict each other?
The same listing gives three frame materials - Carbon Fiber, Composite and Alloy - and an Item Dimensions field reading 10.8L x 10.8W centimetres, which is a square rather than a racket length. Where two fields disagree we quote both instead of choosing one.
