Makes sense. They've customized his frames for years. Good eye, sniper.

It's obvious it's the same frame he's been using.
Just not painted. It's a pure drive... Good eye

You're right, from that pic it really seems like it. I never got a good look at the racquet as there never was a good shot of it during play, but the glossy black paint really made the throat look thinner. Better luck next time I guess haha

He's being ditch by babolat... Look at the shoe's he's using is a barricade. And string set up looks an hybrid blue main and white cross.

Holding that frame against his chest in the last picture.. that head size looks a lot bigger than 100. Andy is a big guy with a long torso and that frame is taking up so much of his torso.
I think he's using a much larger frame. I hit with the 107 a lot and I don't feel like I am giving up any control. Actually, I don't get enough power.

Nope. His racquet doesn't have the cortex or given how tight he wrapped his overgrip you would be able to see the shape of the Cortex. It means that it's a Swirly or older. Moreover, he uses an extended length and there's no reason to believe he changed even if it can be modded. Good luck finding a Pure Drive Plus Swirly in a 107in² version when you're not even sponsored by the company that makes the racquet in the first place AND when the model is long, very long discontinued.

I watched today's match on TV, thought the beam was thinner. Admittedly, I'm no Roddick (or racquet) expert...

You are correct that you are not an expert ;-) j/k
... the racquet is his usual pure drive plus with **** paint job like someone suggested I held the stick with my own hands at ****...what is also cool is that they also had the same mold in wood paint and other cool and unusual paint patters wood imho being the coolest since pure drive is as far as you can get away from wood frame so i thought the irony was cool

Im wondering what string he's using. Its either a blue string or a silver string. Maybe a full bed of poly?

I watched the match, there most definitely was a blue string, but I think it was in a hybrid with gut. Maybe back to his beginnings with Pro Hurricane/gut?

Pro Hurricane has a blue colorway...
Also Topspin Cyber Blue

Babolat XCel

Apart from the ones STW said basically any syn gut also comes in blue... But I assume Roddick won't use a such string... :neutral:
