Wow, I had no idea 5-8 sq inches is the cure for a bad back. Someone tell the Chiropracters quick quick!

Exactly! It's not his racquet.

I'd bet people who start these threads are people who can't handle a 90 sq. in. racquet themselves so they think the best player who ever lived must also not be able to handle it. Think about how dumb that sounds.

Like the people who say Pure drives etc are chick sticks, knock knock, enters Andy Roddick, Rafa Nadal and Jo Wilfried-Tsonga!

No thanks. That will feel like trash to him, coming from the Pro Staff and tour 90 families of frames.

95 to 98 head, 18 to 21mm beam, 13 ounces. headlight balance, firm layup, but not too firm.

You're right, though, it'll have to be a Wilson. But it's funny to imagine him with some other great frames from other manufacturers: the Babolat PSL. Dunlop 200 Tour. Volkl c10 Pro. Prestige (a real one, not that shite they're putting out nowadays).

EDIT:
He will not do this now. November through January to hang with the Wilson product mgrs... playtest and adjust. Oz Oipen final, I'm hoiping.

Why would he do that...A Prestige Mid is actually SMALLER than the 6.1 Tour 90...It's an 89.5 (or a 93 when measured from the outside of the frame).

Lose repeatedly in 1st rounds.

And then suddenly succeed again, when he's 75 years of age.

It's about time someone stepped up to help Fed. Poor guy clearly needs guidance, and structure, of course. BHBH
