Delphine Delrue: Racket & Equipment

World champion in 2026, European champion in 2024, and for years part of the world's elite alongside Thom Gicquel: Delphine Delrue is one of the best mixed doubles players in the world.
She puts a lot of pressure on especially at the net. She takes the shuttle early, is instantly ready on fast drives, and keeps creating situations with short blocks and interceptions that let her partner attack from the backcourt. In mixed especially, that requires a setup that stays fast in hand and remains controllable even in hectic rallies.

Delphine Delrue plays the VICTOR DriveX 12. The racket combines a very solid feel with control and enough speed for fast switches between defence and attack.

That fits her mixed doubles game well. On flat drives, pushes and fast net play especially, it's not just power that counts, but above all how fast and precisely the racket can be handled. At the same time, the DriveX 12 brings enough substance for when Delrue herself needs to put pressure on from the backcourt.
