Default Live from the SAP guys!

Verdasco has switched to yonex! And there's no way Pete Sampras is using a 88 head size it's gotta be a at least a 93 from what I can see >.> but I still picked up the pro staff 88 it's being strung as we speak!

Nah you can't record they're pretty strict on it but it was a bit dissapointing if your a Sampras fan..

Well unless Pete just switched in the last few weeks - he does play with the KPS88. I get my sticks strung at the same place by the same guy as Pete does, and I've held his sticks. KPS88.

Hang on, this is an ATP 250 event, no? How did Sampras get in? It's not an EXO is it?

EDIT: Realised 'twas a Charity singles exhibition.

I'm not saying that it's not a kps88 paint job but hisspecs must be different because his headsize looks bigger compared to the one I'm holding and I can see it pretty clearly from where I'm sitting

No it was a exhibition match for charity they do it every year at the sap.

Like I said - not a PJ. Swung and held his sticks many times and played on court right next to him - and compared them to the stock KPS88 right in the store and except for the lead and grip-work - same exact stick and headsize. Unless something changed in the last few weeks which I doubt.

Good match - Pete was a little off though, especially in the first set. Looked like he was having some trouble with Verdasco's heavy groundies. Here is Verdasco with his new Yonex gear

Haha, Yaz, those exhibition matches are a joke, everybody thinks it's a serious match, Verdasco was rolling in serves trying to get pete in the point. Good entertainment for the folks.
