I know its no big deal what racquet the 2003 french open finalist is using but on the prince site it says he is using an experimental and on the current dutch tournament site it shows him maybe using a kblade? any ideas whats going on?

I was actually thinking of making a post about him after I saw him playing World Team Tennis. I don't remember what racquet he was using, but he was injured or something, and his second serve looked like something out of Dementieva's playbook.

He tore the ligaments in his right ankle and is expected to be out of the game for at least 8 weeks.

That must've hurt.

Last month he still played a Head Microgel prestige, now he changed to the Wilson K blade tour.
