It seems that the blog entry you linked is outdated (2012), as a newer similar blog entry simply does not list the tennis rackets as a prohibited item onboard while it does list the other items. The TSA brochure has the most recent policies, which clearly allows it.
Anyway, here is a list of some of the airlines policies regarding tennis racquets, they would have not allowed them if they were not allowed by TSA:
-
Delta: Allowed, check Special Items Page, under “Fragile, Bulky & Other Items”.
-
United: Allowed (one item only), check the “Tennis” section in the Sports equipment page.
-
JetBlue:: Allowed (counted as a carry-on piece), check the Sporting equipment page.
-
American Airlines:: Allowed, check the Sports Items page.
Bear in mind that most (if not all) airlines will count it as a carry-on baggage, so if your carry-on allowance is one piece, then the racquet will use that, you will need to pay some $ if you are carrying a bag with you along with it.
