Hi Uzair,

Prior to a match the player go to what is called the "Call Room".  In there they give their rackets to the umpires to check for legality.  Once the umpires check the racket they will put them in a bag and hold on to them till the stat of the match.  That is when you see the umpire giving the rackets back to the players just before the match.
