Tennis rackets used on tour, by the professional players
It can if you want them to
Tennis players break their rackets out of frustration or anger when they make mistakes or are not performing well during a match.
Most of them donate the rackets to charity, especially the top players. It is common to sign old rackets and auction them for charity.
Metal rackets because they are made of tougher substances and last longer.
It it depends upon the string pattern. Different rackets have a different amount of cross strings and mainstrings, thus different number of holes.
They were made out of SHEEP GUTS!!!
1873, a development on hitting the ball with your hand
They don't always do it when the balls are changed, but players do change their rackets every couple games. Because they hit so hard, the string tension becomes looser after a couple games. Being pros, everything needs to be exact. That lesser string tension compared to the regular tension could mean one ball being an inch out, instead of being in. So yeah, that's why players change rackets.
They get thrown away or given to a family member if wanted.
