Tennis Racket Grip

What do measurements like 1/4, 3/8 or 1/2 mean in terms of tennis racket grip sizes?
these measurements refer to the circumference of the grip, 4 1/4 inches, 4 3/8 inches, 4 1/2 inches respectively. since very few rackets these days are manufactured with 5 inch grips, which was common in Laver's day, 4 inches has become the assumed standard and so you'll often just see the fraction portion of the measurement. interestingly, a lot of top pros -- federer, nadal, etc. -- are actually playing with smaller grip sizes these days, like 4 1/4, once considered a women's grip, which apparently allows them to accentuate the whipping action on their groundstrokes.
