Wimbledon fever is in full swing, but as documented in our Where to Play Grass Court Tennis in America feature, finding a grass court that doesn't require an expensive club membership can be a daunting task. If Wimbledon has you inspired to hit the courts but there aren't any grass surfaces in your area, consider playing on a clay court with the Babolat V-Pro 2 Clay. It's built with a synthetic leather upper which is reinforced by Pro Shield technology for protection in areas of high wear. The Babolat V-Pro 2 Clay features Exact Pro technology for springy forefoot cushioning, while a heel Kompressor System adds shock absorption. Although its Michelin All Court outsole can be used on a multitude of surfaces, the Babolat V-Pro 2 Clay will truly excel on clay courts. Pick up the Babolat V-Pro 2 Clay today for $95.
