Best Answer

A tennis or other sports racquet sold at retail is technically "prestrung" (ready to use).

Pre-strung means the racquet is shipped to the store already strung and that is the way you purchase it. In specialty sports stores and pro shops, you purchase the racquet, choose the strings, and have the racquet strung at the tension you request.

The word Racquet has origin in the French word racqutte and distinquishes it from Racket in English to mean 'noise/din' .However the English option to use Racquet/racket as sports equipment(tennis/badmington etc) is accepted.
