Within weeks, some of the world's top tennis players will show up at tournaments armed with new technology that they hope will give them a clear advantage over their opponents at Roland Garros and Wimbledon.
Eric Babolat, CEO of the French tennis equipment company Babolat, has announced the first "Connected Racket" into the sport after a decade in development.
Designed for professional players and amateurs alike, and tested by top players including men's number one Rafael Nadal, Jo-Wilfried Tsonga and Australian Open champion Li Na, the racket gathers data through sensors and chips in the handle.
