I feel like this should be moved to "tennis racquet". a) to match wikipedia, b) because I find more references to "tennis racquet"...Anybody watching this page? Mjquin id 18:25, 16 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

I believe "racket" is inaccurate, but am not sure of "policy" here. I would propose "racquet (tennis)" or even just an entry on the "racquet" page? As a "definition" it probably does not require a separate page, but at least a reference to the WP article. But I am from WP and am still trying to find my way around here. -- IrishDragon 17:57, 23 November 2008 (UTC)Reply
Both forms are common. The "racket" form is slightly more common in books.google.com. I'm betting it's a UK/US difference. We do have "Alternative spellings". DCDuring TALK 16:44, 8 December 2008 (UTC)Reply
"Racket" spelling is about as common as "racquet" on UK sports pages. DCDuring TALK 16:54, 8 December 2008 (UTC)Reply
