Agassi playing with Babolat Aeropro at WTT!!! - Page 2

rodrigoamaral · 10-20-2012, 12:59 PM

wonder if he's signed up with babolat now since roddick has joined him on the seniors tour

NikeWilson · 10-21-2012, 11:41 AM

I wonder if Agassi has demo'd the stock Head Radical racquet. After all, the Radical line was dedicated to him by Head.
And now that his pro-career is over, maybe it's time he got rid of his personalized paintjob racquet and try the stuff that consumers play with.
haha.

Haha, love it. Post of the day!

I thought Agassi had a lifetime contract with ' Head"

Roddickulous · 10-23-2012, 05:08 PM

Apparently not. Steffi with the PDR, I am so loving all of this. Heck, I even like Andre beating Roddick. He's hitting SICK with that Aero Pro. looks like PHT/VS Touch or all PHT.

does fatty really make a living playing professional tennis? maybe richard krajicek was right all along.........

I think that was a Head Radical with an AeroPro Drive paint job.

Doesn't seem to be using his usual elastic band shock absorber either. Strange. It's also stenciled with the double line so perhaps he's got an endorsement?

I do like how after they've retired, a lot of these former top pros switch to a completely different racket. Says a lot for Babolat that they seem to be a popular choice for retired pros?

I just find it strange that for some people players who were so picky about their frames and strings (Sampras) during their playing career are far more relaxed when retired.

Then again, perhaps that's not that strange and they're just going where the money is? (And they can pretty much play with anything!) For example, I know I prefer to play with a prestige mid, but if babolat wanted to pay me to use a pure drive I'm sure I could adapt!

Andre is embracing his inner Nadal

It always kills me to see people get so excited about something that happens in a exhibition match. Come on, guys - we've all been to exos. It isn't real tennis, and we all know it. (But man, how does Steffi just keep looking better and better as she ages? It's absurd.)

No kidding.

Saw Agassi last night in San Jose. I wasn't close enough to get a good look, but he carried a Head bag onto the court, and was swinging what looked like a variant of the Radical in the typical orange/black. Perhaps someone courtside has better shots?

quest01 · 11-17-2012, 03:20 PM

That's a great racquet Agassi is using.

What?? Roddick beat Agassi 5-3 in the men's singles.

Agassi won the "super tiebreak", though. Roddick was hobbled by a sprained and swollen ankle. He was visibly limping around the court.

Still impressive for Agassi, he was really striking the ball well. But let's be realistic -- he didn't "crush Roddick" as you said. He lost their set.

She is the #1 US girl, Won Oz open in 2012. At 16 she is coming back from a medical issue which cause the USTA to not want her in the Open until she got late medical clearance.
