Today's tennis rackets, which come in a bewildering array of sizes, materials and prices, may not have improved players' games as much as they have boosted dealers' and manufacturers' profits.

a)may not have improved players' games as much as they have boosted
b)may not have improved a player's game as much as they have boosted
c)may not have improved a player's game as much as it has boosted
d)may not have caused improvements for players' games as much as they may have boosted
e)may not have done as much in improving players' games as in boosting

a)may not have improved players' games as much as they have boosted
comparison is not parallel.
b)may not have improved a player's game as much as they have boosted
comparison is not parallel.
c)may not have improved a player's game as much as it has boosted
use of it is wrong.
d)may not have caused improvements for players' games as much as they may have boosted
awkward construction.
e)may not have done as much in improving players' games as in boosting
This sounds best to me.
Rackets have not done as much in improving ... as in boosting....

IMO E

IMO A as we are comparing the amount of boost tennis rackets have provided.
b)may not have improved a player's game as much as they have boosted
Many rackets affects only one player's game....??
c)may not have improved a player's game as much as it has boosted
Pronoun Error
d)may not have caused improvements for players' games as much as they may have boosted
Wordy
e)may not have done as much in improving players' games as in boosting
Parallel but awkward.. doesnt sound right...

Bit confused between A and E

In A : "they" is confusing me.. I will opt it out.
B is okay
E is okay
I will say B > E as we are trying to say X is greater than Y. I also doubt rackets doing something.
