03/22/06 - Gamma Sports, makers of the number one rated string product line in tennis, today announces the most significant improvement to tennis ball technology in the last 80 years with the Gamma ProTour Tournament Ball. The ProTour features THINTEX™ Technology which combines a ultra thin sculpted core wall and ultra-high pressure for superior playability.
“As we move from a thick walled pressureless practice ball, to a thin walled pressurized tournament ball playability improves; thus going to an even thinner wall with higher pressure further improves playability” said Dr. Harry Ferrari, founder of Gamma Sports and leader of the development team that created the new ball.
Gamma is so confident in the new ProTour Tournament Ball, the ball comes with a money back guarantee. If the ProTour is not the best playing tennis ball, Gamma will refund the purchase. The ProTour tested considerably better in blind play tests than other competitor tournament balls. It has received the stamp of approval from the United States Tennis Association (USTA) and the International Tennis Federation (ITF). The ProTour has been named the official ball of the Professional Tennis Registry (PTR) and is available with the PTR Logo.
