Not to say it isn't PTP but Yonex runs the stringing room for the AO, do they use that label for all players?

Pretty sure he was using Lynx at the Open but I'll try to get confirmation on that.
survey says ... yes
Yonex is running the stringing room, and just for interest, Venus was stringing at 66 & 64 lbs with pre stretch on the gut.

at 100% zoom I can see the design of the sticker matches the one in Zverev's image. The sticker for Venus doesn't look to say Luxilon or Wilson, comparing them it is logical both say 'yonex'.
He was previously sponsored by Signum Pro, not to say he is using it but their Triton is a similar color.

@MattCrosby was at the AO, with special access. So he knows Yonex are the stringers.

Ah, did't catch that. Bit blurry, but I do see it. Wonder what gauge and tension.

I think it is Yonex poly tour pro. He was using Yonex before.

This is interesting. Wonder what we find out...

Really? I'm pretty sure it is Lynx

PTP would make more sense though. Not sure an ATP pro would have any use for such a soft string.

Querrey uses Hyper G 1.20 in a Pure Aero at low tensions so....

I know both strings, hyper G is one of the best polys on the market, lynx is just not. Way too soft, way too short life expectancy, way too erratic.

Certainly wouldn't suit a touch player at all. As the photo above shows, it's 50 and 48.5 lbs

I think their comment was about Venus. When using a OS frame and dealing with tour level pace I bet it plays differently.

AFAIK Venus' racquets have a very high swingweight, so that will play a part in making this setup more forgiving.

Your lack of faith is disturbing
Looks like my first guess was right then. It's nice, that doesn't usually happen. Also, nice reference, albeit misquoted.

May I know from where exactly the reference is and how it goes correctly?

Indeed you may! It is a Star Wars (IV) reference, and was a Vader line, where he responds to some commander trashing him and the force by force-choking him, and saying: "I find your lack of faith disturbing".

Could be,I'm not sure. He was using Yonex strings before and I thought it is more likely than Lynx.
Haha, thanks for that, I was at the Open, and Zverev was using Lynx, as per the picture posted earlier today.
I know you from instagram right?

Well no, yonex is the official AO stringer so they use their stickers for all racquets. French open official stringer is babolat, USO i believe is also yonex and they have Wimbledon stringers on site.
He previously used Hyper G 1.20 at 49 lbs (credit to @ProStringing) but I was actually told recently by a friend who strung Querrey's racquets at the World Tennis Challenge in Adelaide that he used Hyper G 1.20 at tensions ranging from 66 to 68 lbs.

Mischa now appears to be using gut mains with lynx crosses.
