It’s an Artengo racquet, this has also been mentioned before
is it really Artengo ?? One of the commentator said she is using Wilson frame, possibly blade. if it is Artengo, she must really love it cause she doesn't need the money from the racket contract. She's already a millionare.

Why is Federer still with Wilson?

He’s talking about Kasatkina, who has switched to an artengo racquet.

It’s been speculated that Anisimova’s blacked out Wilson is some sort of Steam 99 pro stock.

Fun fact: Anisimova is doing a trial with Darren Cahill, Halep’s longtime coach.

Fun fact 2: Halep uses a Steam 99 pro stock

Do you think that if a coach gets a student to make a racket change, there is some money in it for him/her?

Anisimova is using a Steam 100 mold. You can see the characteristic 4 white grommet tubes and it's a 16x20 pattern frame.

Isn't her new coach Darren Cahill...ex Halep coach..?
I suppose his 1st instruction was to ditch the Pure Drive and go with the proven Steam 100..aka Halep's racket..
Looks like good coaching so far and the results to prove it..

They are on a trial, see how it goes. Which it looks like it is going well. The racket as already switched before they started working together.

Good catch. And it seems to be a recent change. She was using a babolat back during IW (getty pic). She's been able to nicely serve strongly with it.

Amazing how the wilson steam 100 , a model from 2012, has still been currently used by a bunch of wta players under their respective repaints, even during this AO.

Yeah. The Steam 100 and the 99 in prostock form really caught on.

Cahill has said today on the telecast here in Australia, he is "consulting" and is not taking over from her current coach.

Of course to stay home is always the best option... but If someone is willing to pay$..
Get the passport ready and the bags packed..
Time to see the world again through the lens of a young hungry USA player this time around..

We’ll, I can say the Steam 100 (retail) is not that great hitting of a racquet. It feels big, long, and has a small sweet spot. But the pro-stock probably hits completely different. Obviously
