One Handers with 100”+ Racquets

[Villain]

Looking to compile a list of one-handers past and present playing with 100” or larger racquets. Seems that most one-handers like head sizes smaller than 98 but there are some rarities. Here’s what I’ve come up with off the top of head, I’m sure there’s more out there:

1. Paul Annacone - Prince POG 107
2. Alex Corretja - Babolat Pure Drive and later Aero Pro Drive (unsure which versions)
3. Alberto Martin - Original Babolat Pure Drive
4. Richard Gasquet - Head Liquidmetal Instinct MP extended.
5. Gabriela Sabatini - Prince POG 107, Yamaha Proto EX-110
6. Ivan Ljubicic - Head Microgel Extreme Pro
7. Jean Julien Rojer - Völkl 8 315
8. Mariano Puerta - Babolat APD original
9. Feliciano Lopez - Babolat Pure Drive Plus, Wilson Pro Open
10. Bryan Brothers - Prince Soeedport Black, Babolat Pure Drive
11. Ivo Karlovic - Head Flexpoint Instinct

Not familiar with the Yamaha, but I guess that’s what she’s using here:

Shocked by how well I'm hitting my 1hbh with my Gravity Tour. Surprisingly, I don't find it sluggish and am embracing that soft/plush feel and hint of extra forgiveness off that wing.

Nice, I should’ve remembered Ivan. I even posted about his racquet switch from his PD a couple of weeks ago.

Horacio Zeballos beat Nadal (on clay in Chile) with a 100" Speed MP or Pro. Pretty sure ...

Deliciano Lopez with the Pure Drive + and now the extended Pro Open

Bryan Bros with their PD+s

Karlovic when he used the Flexpoint Instinct

Sam Groth with the APD(+?)

I’ve updated the list to reflect the racquets I’ve been able to confirm. Mods, could you move this thread to “Pros’ Racquets and Gear?” Thanks.
