Hi doesn't use a TF320. I believe he uses one of the older Major frames painted to look like the 320.

At Wimbledon his rqts were strung with Red Code in the mains and X1 in the crosses. The tension escapes me, but he wanted it strung with 10% pre-stretch so it was strung on the Sensor we had there.

Regards

Paul

The racket is out of the mold of the MAJOR Bullit Elite (16x19 pattern). Same mold was used for T.Fight 325 but with 18x20 pattern.

Can anyone explain the extra grommet contraption he has at 3 and 9, third picture from top.

It seems to be covering up some lead...

I have some of his racquets also. Lead at 3 and 9 but otherwise look like 320's to me. Haven't lifted the head guard, but one is currently unstrung so I might take a look.

i havent tried 16, but i've used x-1 17. its a bit stiff once you first use it, but once you wear it in for about an hour or two, it softens up and plays real nice. really good on the serves.
