Finally Roger Federer had some time to try a new frame and apparently he is rather happy about that.
The world no.6 gave a shot to the new frame this summer, but an injury to his back made it very difficult to understand if the new frame gave some added value or not.
Now Roger is trying again.
Roger on the new frame
“Yeah, I’m going to play in Australia with a similar model as in my first attempt. Actually, I wanted to take the test right after the U.S. Open again. But then I had so much to do with myself and my game, that I let it stay. Now I had more time to still make further small changes and to file with my outfitter company Wilson on the details,” said the Maestro
“I feel it was the right time”
The Roger added ”It is a fact that the sport of tennis is constantly developing and the racket technology with him. Nevertheless, one must always think twice if you change something on his racquet. Because the club is extremely important. But now I have the feeling that the right time for a change there is. I’ve played through two and a half weeks with the new model and am confident. The racket suits me very well in the hand. But the truth is on the court. We will see in the tournaments in Australia as it affects.”
