This. I want his real opinions without the PR.

Great racquet test by Intuitive Tennis. To my surprise, he likes the Future the most.

I'm interested as well. The Carbon 98 especially.

Have you experimented with lead? 318 seems awfully low, should probably be about 10 points higher to enjoy.

This is very true. I bought four TF40 16x19 frames and every one is different. Frame one is goldilocks stock with a leather grip. Frame two lacks plow and is customized with some lead at 3 and 9. Possibly 2 and 10 would be even better. Frame three has high swingweight and is a little over my...

305 16x19 with leather grip.

I would leave the 18x20 behind, even if it's cool on slices. You just get a bit more out of poly strings with a standard 16x19 with every stroke. I'm using the TF40 16x19, but I can't really recommend it due to the quality control issues (I got one good spec in four frames). You have some good...

I own both and prefer the RF01 for pedestrian reasons: I'm not good enough to play the heavier weight for long periods of time. I found the Pro especially tough to serve with, however the lighter model should be fairly accessible for many players who can handle something like a Pro Staff or a...

I finally got to play my RF01 and RF01 Pro frames, both strung with my standard full bed of Alu Rough at 23/22kg. The feeling of the racquets is very unexpected. Just holding them by the throat they feel almost like a thick-framed Babolat. The reviewers are right that nothing about them gives...

I like Alu Power Rough in it at lower tensions. But I think your hybrid might work well, just don't go crazy tight, I feel like the frame provides good control.

Those specs are pretty close, nice to see!

Carbon fibers break down over time, resulting in a softer feel. Restringing will also mess up the grommets. But I would be far more willing to spend money on racquets if I didn't have to fight QC issues. Bad QC (according to my experience): Wilson Head Babolat Tecnifibre Good QC (according to...

Yeah, I was cringing a bit at that. Rog has no idea how little time the average amateur spends on court. Also not enough violent ballstriking to break these frames down in a year. And don‘t get me started on the rare times people are getting new strings…

I play with the 16x19 305 version and absolutely love the foam filled feel, control and power of the frame. As others have mentioned the quality control is not the best. I have four frames that are all different. Don‘t be afraid to add lead tape if you get an underpowered one with low...

I ordered the RF01 and the Pro just to get an idea. As a TF40 user I'm interested in lower-powered, foam filled frames.

Aww. I hope they don‘t just make one great version like with the Autograph. The lighter models always felt off and had worse QC.

Which weights do come with a real leather grip?

Alcaraz looked bad in the fourth. What happened in the third?

Ah, we have all seen that script. Novak will win in four. Next!

Yeah, not a great match from Stan. At least he improved a bit in the third.

Stan plays with zero confidence. He's getting killed out there.

Kudos to Nole for getting the most slams! Casper Ruud is too nice, he needs to find his inner animal like Stan did.

I missed the match. What's up with Zed, he looks dead?

Oh, come on. Nervous in the first set and injured in the third? Would be nice to have a match with everyone at their full capacity.

Neither has a grip on their first server, weird.

Not exactly a thrilling match...

Ofner really showed up for the match, but I'll always root for Fognini. He's certainly not at his best today, but I hope for a nice run.

So many gifts. What's going on, Fritz?

It's so cool to see Huesler step up, he's a late bloomer with a very solid indoor game.

Ah, nice win for Lucky Loser Goffin! Fast feet, great return and plays with brains.
