How do you tighten a tennis racket string?

Materials you will need:

  • Tennis racket
  • Stringing machine or clamps
  • String
  • Needle

Instructions:

  1. Remove the old string: Use a string cutter to cut the strings at the center of the racket. Remove the old strings by pulling them out through the grommets.
  2. Insert the new string: Thread the needle with the new string. Starting at the bottom of the racket, insert the needle into the first grommet and pull the string through.
  3. Tie the string: Tie the string to the frame of the racket using a square knot.
  4. String the racket: Continue stringing the racket, alternating the direction of the strings. Pull the strings tight enough to create the desired tension, but not so tight that the frame is damaged.
  5. Weave the strings: Once all the strings are in place, weave them through the grommets to create a pattern.
  6. Tie off the strings: Tie the strings off at the top of the racket using a square knot.
