Federer shifted to the ‘Hyper Pro Staff 6.0’ in 2002. This was the first time when he used a 90 square inch head racquet and has been using the same since then.

After using its various models for almost five years, Federer then started playing with the ‘Wilson K Factor Six One Tour 90’. It was this racquet with which Roger won his only French Open title.
