I agree - looks too narrow in the head. I'd guess Radical.

More and more players are playing with Novak's stick
Nice to see.
but novak doesn't use a g speed, or are you saying that sascha uses a lm radical??

based on close up pictures, looks like the mold of the youtek/youtek ig speed (18x20). Seems too round to be a micro rad mold like nole's, that stepanek and paes both seem to be using these days....

They use two different racquets. Not the same.

Well absolutely possible, i'm not saying i'm the messiah of tennis
and you probably have better infos about this topic than me Did you have the possibility to see Zverev's frame personally?

As you can see Novak bumper guard goes past the silver stripe on the shorts side of the white paint at the head of the frame.
While Alexander's bumper guard stops way before that same silver stripe on the short side of the white paint. They have two different head sizes and head shapes. They have two different racquets.
Djokovic and Stepanek both use the same racquet

IG Speed MP 18x20, belive me or not
he played that one for a while it seems. Someone saw him at a youth tourney 2-3 years ago and he was using it already.
Either YT or IG Speed MP 18x20. He did use it in white a few years ago.

I believe you guys
Can you see the difference in the racquets??

Yes, i play with an Ig Speed 18x20 and that bumper looks like the one on my own racket, it's definitely shorter than Djoko's one. Probably the paint-job makes the head shape visually different from my frame

Head Hawk/VS? Interesting....

That sounds like a very nice combination!

If it was the reverse I'd agree.

Oh yeah I didn't think about that? I suppose he is used to use a hybrid like that with a multi or similar and know when he can get NG for free he takes that instead. As I said said he is probably just used to it like that...

Well if it is the ordinary IG then it's 100.

Yes, but there's no way a top ATP pro would be using anything even remotely close to a retail Head stick.
Cerps

Of course they could. If they liked it retail why not? It's not that he would have gotten custom made sticks two or three years ago. Maybe a bit of lead here and there but otherwise why would it not be a retail model? The IG speed (and the Youtek previous) was an excellent frame!

Sorry about that... Thought you were one of them...

I got a close look at the citi open practice courts a few days ago. Definitely looked like a 100sq inch speed

edit: never mind just realized there is another topic about this already.
Noticed a weird paint job on Zverev's stick today at monte carlo. Here is a picture (taken from youtube video of him practising with Djok at Monte Carlo). It's clearly not a XT pintjob, but it does say Speed. So could it be a line change in the near future for the speed models?

Novak plays with a tgk 238.3 it's basically a radical.More and more players are playing with Novak's stick
Nice to see.

TGK238.3 is a pro stock version MG Prestige Pro that Wawrinka had used. Novak plays with PT113B which is a Radical MP
vsbabolat
G.O.A.T.
That's because it's an older Speed MP from the YouTek or IG Speed MP. Both have the same mold.
No it's not the pt57a is a prestige mold, the pt11 is the newer shelf prestigie, and I have a 3 tgk 238.3 and I'm 100% sure there radicals
vsbabolat

You are 100% wrong on everything! 238 is the Prestige MP mold from Microgel and YouTek. http://tt.tennis-warehouse.com/index.php?threads/my-new-ytpp-pro-stock.375443/
PT11 doesn't exsist and PT57A is the Pro Tour 630.
Well I'm sure mine are not prestigies the pro I got them from had them made for him straight from bosworth And I meant pt113b the radical. Also apologize for calling a pt57a a prestigie instead of pro tour 630.. I'm pretty sure there the same, its just not named prestige yet junior.

G.O.A.T.
You don't know what you're talking about. TGK231.3 is a MG Radical MP and that's what you might have. But sorry son TGK238.3 is Prestige. The PT57A was NEVER named Prestige. PT113B is the same mold as the Ti. Radical MP and i.Radical MP. You write some good fiction!
Oh and Bosworth makes nothing. They CUSTOMIZE racquets. The racquets are made by the racquet companies and then get shipped to Bosworth to be customized for the player that contracts Bosworth to do their customization.
