Interesting that TWE on facebook says "Noticed this mysterious HEAD racket, next to Novak Djokovic´s bag?"

They specifically said "HEAD" racket, and they've play tested it. And I thought I saw a HEAD stencil on the strings during the change over. But I noticed it didn't have the same grip/overgrip on it, so I really think that he wasn't using it, but placed it there to get attention. The black racket was placed next to one of the current rackets, and neither one looked like it was touched for the whole match.

Watched the replay of the match and there clearly is a head symbol stenciled into the racket so the racket is from Head... my guess would be the new speed

This is infact a publicity stunt. I know for a fact that head wanted him to use this to create hype for the new speed coming out in january! He is not testing any other brands racquets.

Safe to assume then that it's his existing frame - blacked out and ready for the new PJ.

When the new frame is released, people will go out and buy it because it LOOKS like the one he plays with! Regardless that the shape and make up from his personal frame is entirely different.

I've become such a cynic!

He is subliminally telling Head, "look you need to sign me for big money or I'm going to switch to this black Babolat racquet sitting here on my bag".
