Hmm... they can go plenty of angles with this one. Wizard of Oz perhaps?

Is there any confirmation on the internet about this?
Cause that would be SWEET.
An instinct would look pretty nice in her hands.

The acronym All Day I Dream About Sport, although sometimes considered the origin of the adidas name, was applied retroactively, which makes it a backronym. The name is actually a portmanteau formed from "Adi" (a nickname for Adolf) and "Das" (from "Dassler"). Rudolf Dassler split from the company and formed Puma. - from Wikipedia

Who's saying Sharapova is using the YT Radical PRO? And why is this assumption made?
It seems quite obvious to me that it is the YT Radical MIDPLUS, not pro.

Because the racquet is a lot rounder than the MP and even more concerning, it's a 16x19.

That's why.






However, this is still speculation, nobody knows for sure what it is yet, or what paintjob it will be.

Because she is using a 16x19 frame, it is larger than the Midplus, and different head shape.



Since May 2010 I believe that she has been using the HEAD YT Radical Pro (MOLD at the very least).

^^^Looks like Open string pattern with 100 sq inches head. Maybe little bigger ?? and it is definitely extra long length.
