I thought he used the K[Blade] 98, but in this pic, it looks like the K[Blade] Tour

Yeah, he has always used the Tour...on the TW site they say that he uses 98..notice where on the tour the place where it says "[K]AROPHITE BLACK" it is black and on the 98 it is white.

it's one of the old pro staff's pj'ed. I think a 6.5 but I wouldn't know.

interesting, according to where the stencil is coming off on the strings he hits a lot of shots on the right side of the racquet

Yeh, that's why I was puzzled, since on TW, they say he uses the 98

Fedex1 and Rosenstar are correct. He does not use a Kblade at all. The proof is in the PWS. It's likely he's using a prostaff.

Do a search and you'll find a thread of a guy who actually received a broken frame from Tsonga and you can clearly see it's PWS which out the KBlade theory to rest.

I'm convinced its not the K[Blade] because of the PWS's, and I don't think its the Hyper ProStaff because it is 16 x 18, and the cracked racket was 18 x 20. It might be a K[Factor] 95

it could be the euro or tour version of the hyperprostaff. It's 18x20, slightly heavier and a tad more head light. It's red and has yellow at the 10 and 2 o'clock instead of silver like the regular version.

Tsonga's racquet is the Hyper Pro Staff 6.5.
