Our scores, updated 22 October 2026 · How we score
Score by score
How we score →The green bar wins the round. The Carbon Ctrl takes 5 of the six, the Attack takes power.
Feel is read from the core and the face until hardness is measured.
What is different
Face, balance and price change between them; the rest is the same. Pick one to look closer.
12K packs 12,000 carbon filaments into each thread against 3,000: a stiffer face that answers sooner on volleys. The Carbon Ctrl's 3K is a little softer and gives you more time when you are late.
Edge: the Attack, for precision
* The feel starts from the core's rated hardness (estimated from the core material where there is no rating), then the face: carbon 12K and up is firmer, fibreglass softer.
The same weight, 360 to 375 g.
No edge either way
Where each one balances, measured from the end of the handle. The lower the point, the more of the weight sits in your hand: the Carbon Ctrl at 260 mm, the Attack at 265 mm.
Edge: the Carbon Ctrl, for your arm
* Drawn to scale: a 455 mm racket in its shape's outline (traced from a real racket of that shape), with the balance point the shops list marked on it. Real rackets vary by a few millimetres.
