The Tourna O-Damp (formerly known famously as the "Sampras Dampener") is a classic, ring-shaped silicone vibration absorber used by tennis players to eliminate the high-pitched "ping" sound and string vibrations upon ball impact.

• The Design: Its signature round shape features a hollow center hole, which is specifically designed to minimize wind resistance and drag when swinging the racket at high speeds.

• The Legacy: Originally made famous by 14-time Grand Slam champion Pete Sampras, who used this exact style of dampener throughout his entire legendary career.

• The Performance: It easily presses between the main center strings just below the bottom cross string. It significantly dulls harsh frame vibrations and string noise, giving players a softer, more solid feel at contact.
