New York, US
Quarterly
Publisher, founder: Caitlin Thompson 
Design: Works Well With Others
Guest editor: David Granger

A magazine about tennis that places the sport at the heart of art, culture, fashion and ideas. Always a rich read and visual treat, whether you’re a tennis head or not (trust us). 

The latest issue of the recently revitalised Racquet lands in the midst of an eventful US Open, featuring a candy-coloured, uncanny valley portrait of two-time winner Andre Agassi on the cover. Guest edited by former Esquire editor-in-chief David Granger, it covers Agassi's recent resurgence after fifteen years away from the limelight; a history of the US Open's cocktail of choice; the parallels of tennis and sex; and features on Danielle Collins, Taylor Townsend, Monica Seles and Dominic Thiem. Plus, seven writers recount ‘The Greatest Thing I've Ever Seen On a Tennis Court’, which culminates with Pete Sampras puking his way to a quarterfinal victory back in 1996.
