Does anyone know about the clothes that Lendl is wearing in Murray's box? It's pretty non descript, with only a C logo...

Apart from dumb phones and increased selfie lifestyles with lack of reality.....
I feel the lack of flex in certain stick choices is destroying some usually awesome players.

Ferrer goes from Mr concrete consistency Flexy Prince to PS and steep drop
Tsonga managed Aussie Final with classic stick then cant improve at all
JJ goes from classic stick with flex to APD and now shambles
Fognini well like JJ is mercurial but he was doing so well even with roller coaster form

How many of todays kids...

Does anyone know which racquet Justine henin and Lindsay Davenport would use today? I did a google image search and it appears Davenport has a black racquet - is this what happens if you get it custom made (and don't need a paint job for sponsorships)?

I know the burn is the new "tour" (as they both used the tour line, but it's much heavier it seems.

1st photo with GSP and second with XT version? I know it might be paintjob. Head size looks like a 100 inches. Shared holes. 18x20 pattern.. I think he did use wilson in the past so it might be the pj... But even the beam looks similar.

Are new frames so much better for the "modern game"?

Hum... Andy doesn't think so.

EDIT: before any smart ass says it, by 20-year old I mean the model, not the racquets per se.

It's well known that Wawrinka was using (and probably still is) RPM Blast 16 but however in an interview with Tennis Head right around the time of his 2015 French Open victory (I don't know how to link it, but if you search Wawrinka strings on Google it will be one of the first things to come up) he says that he's been working on a prototype string with Yonex and during a period last year he could be seen playing with red strings which would seem to support this statement. Can anyone shed...

It's 93 square inches,red,20mm beam,68 flex,325g unstrung,8pts HL and its a precision tool.

Super solid feel with a huge sweet spot.

Swing aggressively and you can hit big.

That compact head adds so much to the feeling of control.

Played with this frame for a few months 2 years ago and not sure why I ditched it.

It has the power the Redondo MP lacks with dare I say it even more control.

I have put a thicker under grip on and reckon it plays much better than before. Without dampener it...

it seems like these two Pure Storm devotees have switched in the offseason. I wonder which sizes/weights they're using... can't see the string patterns very clearly on TennisTV right now. I'm curious to see whether people can 'tame the cobra' with these snakey racquets in high pressure play. Tsonga, Jerzy Janowicz, Benjamin Becker all tried it and quit it. I don't quite belong in that group, but I gave it four months of serious trial and decided that even my evenly balanced and very heavy...

Like the "C" one available at Angell. Seems like a good deal to players that won't use the eastern bevel.

≪ Previous: New Pro Kennex for Andreas Seppi

I have seen that he wears the most recent apparel just as other pros, but I saw him wear old stuff such as the adizero crew worn by players in Indian Wells/ Miami this year. Could it be that he is just keeping his personal image by not looking like a club player? If so, he could just use Ryan's gear. Also, would it be quite strange for Adidas to sign a guy who has not yet been established on tour?
