G.O.A.T.
I wonder what he's using now to hit with Fed?
And if I get one, I'll have a backhand just like his. :wink:

Thanks. Sounds like he's using a 90 sq. in. Pro Staff.
Just between you and me, I always thought Becker was a bit of a head-case.In other news, Djokovic reneged his contract with Becker from a year to 10 days...just kidding...![]()

I was wondering that too.I would like to know what string is he currently using? Does anyone know? Thanks in advance.
No problem.
I agree, it appears he's using the Pro Staff 90 and that backhand of his is just sublime.
I heard Federer extended his contract with Edberg from 10 weeks to a full year. Congrats to Stefan for making an immediate impact.

I met Edberg's wife once.
Whew.
He can keep his wife, i just want his bank account.
I'm just glad that someone started this thread; quite sick of the topic "Federer's Racket"; this makes for such a welcome change!![]()

I thought he was going to coach for the whole year, but his appearances would be limited to 10 weeks sprinkled here and there?
Yep, that's what I was thinking.Sounds like gut.
Wow, Edberg still plays with a bare leather grip with no overgrip? Him and McEnroe belong to same last generation club.
Yep, the video shows that too.Wow, Edberg still plays with a bare leather grip with no overgrip? Him and McEnroe belong to same last generation club.

Great backhand but I cringe every time I see that forehand.

Watching Edberg hit with Federer is tennis porn.. if someone watches that video and is not smiling the entire time then they need to be smacked.
I also agree that the bed sounds like full gut
Watching that video, I must say the Edberg's forehand looks much better than it did 15 years ago. Not sure if its the perspective, or if he's changed it around, but it used to be more chicken-wing, and his follow through looks better.
Edberg's forehands look better then they did during his haydays.
Sweet.

^^^Why does Federer racket look like same as Edberg's just blacked out ?
Agreed!He's still got it! Although he should go back to his trusty PS85!
Very true.you never see any recreational players on the court these days with just leather anymore.
Maybe Federer never actually switched from his 90 but this whole switching to a 98 hype is just a marketing ploy by Wilson to sell more racquets? :shock: They know they can sell tons of a new 98 model if people believed Federer actually switched to that model.^^^Why does Federer racket look like same as Edberg's just blacked out ?

You do realize that it was a joke, don't you? Thought it was pretty obvious.And please -- it's a 98 - I've been on the practice courts while he's hitting with it and sat next to it about a foot away. It's much bigger than a 90. Sorry to burst any bubbles.
