I know Serena recently changed from all gut to a hybrid, but I believe Venus still playes with all gut unless she changed too.

Haas kept at it for a long time. I remember a YouTube vid of him mumbling too himself about these stupid kids cheating using poly while he plied his trade with full gut. Loved it... Think haas is a legend.

one of the bryan brothers (can't remember which one) uses full gut. the other one uses a hybrid (poly/gut).
On another note, Paola Suarez still uses a full bed of Prince Tournament Nylon.
