Default Andy Murray's racket

I heard sometimes when Andy wants more control of the ball/ strokes during the match, he will switch from PT57 (16x19 pattern) to TGK 231.2 (18x20 pattern).

Is it true?

No, its false. He plays with one frame PT57A with 16x19 string pattern.

If it's on the internet it must be true.

If this logic were true why wouldn't he switch to a normal PT57?

According to that guy, he said Andy Murray places a few TGK 231.2 in his bag as back ups. For example, during a match, if he needs more control on the ball instead of power.

Anyone can confirm??

Nope, I saw that racket for sale also on the bay, that would've just been in his bag as head send him whatever he requests.
