Caption: Roddick looked like a fruit then, still looks like one today.

denty, guga is not using the Head pt280 and JCF is probably using a paint job of the POG.

if you guys go to a certain auction site, and search fora the item number 7171495541, you can finda good picture of a super rd tour 90. that is what davydenko is using in that pic, not the 95.
