This tennis racquet is the Fox Bosworth Signature Series ATP ceramic Pro WB-210. Designed for the Association of Tennis Professionals in the USA by Warren Bosworth. Bosworth invented this 10-sided head shape for extra stability without a larger, wider head. It is a rare racquet.
This racquet is in good condition. No cracks or chips, and very playable. All the grommets are perfect and original unbroken strings still are fairly tight. The Fox logo stencil on the strings is mostly faded. It has some head rash along the white bumper guard (as beginner tennis player years ago) and top edges, but otherwise pretty clean. Original Fox embossed leather grip is in good condition. Includes the original full length cover with carry strap.
I am the original owner, and haven't used this racquet for a number of years. Kept it in its case and stored it in an indoor closet, in a smoke-free and pet-free home.
Below are COMMENTS about this model tennis racket from tennis players:
"I can't believe I still got one of those Fox racquets left. When I played with this stick, everybody use to give me a lot of grief because it looked like a stop sign. It's ten sided. And for some reason that thing was the ugliest looking thing but it treated it me good. Soon as I switched to it, for some reason I played my best tennis with it. Every time I looked at it when I was playing, I thought it was so ugly but kind of fit my game. And the thing was in retirement forever, but now that they brought it back and Martina and Stepanek, a few players play with. So even though it looks ugly, there's a little bit of magic in the old Fox stick."
- Brad Gilbert
"They are very much control-oriented, low power frames. If you like Volkl or Yonex shaped grips, you'll probably like the Fox grip. It's a fine racket for someone looking for lots of control."
"It's a great frame and reminds me of Brad Gilbert in his hayday."
From a collector of vintage rackets: "Fairly rare and very desirable collectible model the Custom made for the Association of Tennis Professionals ATP FOX BOSWORTH Ceramic/Graphite/Fiberglass WB-210, often referred to as " the OCTAGON RACKET " by many collectors, but as you can see it actually has 10 sides not 8 and is more properly a DECAGON Racket, but who really cares ?...It's so BEAUTIFUL nobody should care, but certainly everybody should want one !...I hear these play very well also, but I have used it for display and these always get a LOT of attention and conversation in my collection for shear visual impact...."
