(57) The present invention relates to a tensioning device for a strung racquet (4) provided
with a head (7) having a plurality of string holes (11) through which one or more
strings (12) are threaded and drawn tight. The tensioning device (13,13A) comprises
an elongate element (16, 16A) for location outside the racquet head (7) to extend
around a portion thereof, said element having a plurality of apertures (14, 14A) in
register with respective ones of the string holes (11) within said portion so that
the string (12) or strings can be threaded through the element (16, 16A) and a selectively
operable adjusting means (15, 15A) to act between the head (17) and said element (16,
16A) to adjust the spacing of said element from the head (7) and thereby alter the
tension of at least those strings (12) threaded through the element (16, 16A).
