Pablo Andujar Racquet at Rio 2020

[tennisgurl]

Just saw the highlights of R1 Andujar/Verdasco match. Andujar seems to be playing a Phantom (no stencil) and had the new Prince bag as well. I know Andujar was previously with Prince as well and used the O3 Tour. This current one he is using seems to be without ports. Can anyone identify which Phantom he is using at Rio this year? Looks like a 100 sq inch 18x20 Phantom. Will try to get some pictures in here shortly.

Couple of pics I could find

Seems like this one from TW website. Thin beam and head size sort of a giveaway.

 

[Arzivu]

It is definitely a ported one. Maybe his old 03 under the phantom cosmetics
Edit: If you check the tennis tv highlights, you will easily notice the ports.

 

[2nd Serve Ace]

I'm seeing ports as well in first pic.

Beam looks thicker than phantom, particularly in the throat.

 

[tennisgurl]

Hmm, I will try to get some more pics. Usually Getty has some good ones but not at this time it seems. I'm not seeing the ports for some reason although totally makes sense he would have ports given his older racquet.

Also question; can players who are not sponsored still get PJ'd racquets? Like O3 Tour with Phantom PJ for Andujar?

Prince Phantom O3 100X Racket
It could very well be the above model that is out in Europe and the USA' if he is using an 16 Main frame.
It is the version 2 of the ported Phantom with Textreme at 10 & 3 plus Tarwon

He is using 18x20 though.

I stand corrected. He is indeed using 16 × 18 (can't believe he ditched his 18x20s) here but this was in Doha in January of this year. It is for sure a ported Phantom though (can see the O3 sign).

Wow. And I thought they’d never give him new paint for his prince racquets.

 

[nohandedbackhand]

He used 18x20? Thought it was illegal for Spaniards to use tight pattern Prince racquets..

@tennisgurl
Well an 27.5" 18x 20; O3 Phantom would be special.

Same TX141P as always. Look at the beam shape and thickness. Prince just got their act together and finally told him to get a pj.

@cyanide43
Thank you. Prince giving out paint jobs !
The last image when enlarged shows ports a 6 o'clock, as my my TX141P-100 [ O 3 Tour ] has, while the TX314A-100 Phantom and the current O3 100X has grommets at 6 o'clock

Good eye! Didn't notice the ports at 6 o clock like Pbody mentioned.

 

[BorgCash]

Btw, did he use Asics shoes?

All black version of the O3 Tour MP, as per Prince Official account. Must say breath of fresh air as Prince came out so openly about their player's racquet having a paint job. Respect and makes me like Prince even more for being honest (are you listening other major brands!)

It looks like this year he is playing with the latest paint job. Does anyone know what strings and tension is using?
It looks like a hybrid

Agree. That's amazing transparency from Prince.
