Ljubicic mentions his new racquet

[LowProfile]

Most of what Ljubicic said will be cut out of the post in order to eliminate spoilers. But after his match, Ljubicic explicitly referred to the fact that he is supposedly using a new racquet (whether he is using an actual Head model or just a painted Pure Drive is still a matter of debate).

Ljubicic said in the post-match interview that:
"...I am playing with a new racquet...it gives me more power and control, so it helps me play better from the baseline."

What does this imply? Is he actually using a real Head (since most pros openly admit to using paintjobs when questioned about it) or is he simply being a good advertiser for Head by pretending to use their racquets and even bringing it up in interviews?

It is very unlikely that HEAD would paint over another brand's frame to look like one of their own. Many have stated in what are now numerous other threads on this topic that Ljubicic is indeed playing with a new HEAD racquet that was in many ways fashioned after the PD.
