New racket out in the market
Federer has been loyal towards Wilson rackets. He has been using the same brand for decades now. Despite having options in Babolat, used by Rafael Nadal or Yonex, used by Nick Kyrgios, the Swiss chose the Wilson Pro staff.
It is remarkable that the brand has now come forth with Pro Staff RF97. Federer spoke to the tennis warehouse with the details of the racket. He explicitly mentioned the racket size that has grown over the years, indicating a change in the sport of tennis.
The racket has a matte black shade with the racket face of 97 inches and measures 27 inches in length. The other dimensions include the string pattern of 16X19 and weight 357g. Compared to other rackets used by his compatriots, Roger uses a much heavier racket.
Roger has been away due to a knee injury and has given considerable time to his sponsors. He recently featured in an advertisement commercial for Lindt and a video for Credit Suisse. He plans to return to the sport in 2021. Meanwhile, he has been appearing in a lot of his sponsors’ campaigns.
