Racquet Magazine No. 26

In this, our first-ever travel issue, we explore the Ligurian coast with Spanish tennis legend Feliciano Lopez and present a visual journal of Rome, brought to us by a photographer who grew up amidst its spectacularly gorgeous courts. We touch down in fields afar: From the British Indian atoll of Diego Garcia to one man’s vacation-turned-vocation in Cebu City, to a celebration of the Fiji Open, now in its 118th year. 

Expat Abena Anim-Somuah joins a men’s only tennis club in Mexico City, we made you a guide to the newly upgraded tennis destination of Dallas, and compiled for readers a journey we’d all like to take: to perfection. Laura Bailey and her collaborator Mark Arrigo bring us around the globe with their new Rizzoli tome Courtship: For the Love of Tennis, and on our cover, SoCal native Taylor Fritz goes home to LA.
