He actually is honest by saying he uses the same racquet since 8 years. No BS marketing lingo... respect!!!

[@michaelp9061]

Exactly. Makes me wanna ask djokovic which speed does he use ?

[@Eyeball53]

but i think yonex makes their players use the newest model?

[@chevy4x466]

@@Eyeball53perhaps it depends on the players deal.

[@allchannel1841]

@@michaelp9061 he doesnt use speed, he uses a very old head radical 95 sq inch !

[@rbarreira2]

​@@Eyeball53They don't.

[@JMPejo]

This is the kind of interview I have been looking for, no marketing BS.

[@michaelp9061]

Unlike djokovic who never even touched a speed , Ruud uses a dr 100 extended which is in the same line he actually promotes.

[@Nessaj87]

Indeed! And it's a racket Yonex sells (newer version) compared to Novaks racket. Speed only exists as 100" but Novaks racket is 95".. Even more silly is Head Boom. Musetti and Gauf is the face of Head Boom. Musetti uses Head Extreme Tour painted as Boom, and Gauff uses a Head Speed painted as Boom..

[@michaelp9061]

@@Nessaj87 you sir certainly did your homework.

[@loklokoppa9255]

Great segment. Hope to see more of these player/racquet interviews.

[@dbk7238]

chris, nice interview great answers from casper. i hope you do more of these interviews with other atp and wta players. thanks.

[@davidmaloney9505]

Super interview! Super informative.

[@ginoinzo]

Great interview, thanks tw!

[@matteo4413]

crazy he breaks strings every hr.

[@chevy4x466]

I have nothing in common with a professional men’s tennis pro 😂😂😂. That is wild. I thought they changed racquets cuz they enjoyed fresh grips more than anything.

[@TagmatonDomestikon]

​@@chevy4x466the pros are very sensitive to seeing tension too. Even me as a mostly recreational player I notice that my strings noticeably lose tension after 2 or 3 practice sessions about 3 hours or so of play time. And pros are hitting much more frequently and rallying a lot more with bigger serves, so 1 set is about right for a racket before they notice tension loss and change rackets.

[@Jarek1749]

Me, decent amateur. Never longer than 2,5 hrs, usually about 2 hrs, sometimes 1,5 hrs. Rarely serving. It really depends on string itself, string setup (thickness, tension), string pattern, amount of spin and partners’ style. For pro player any result is possible.

[@chevy4x466]

@@Jarek1749 must cost a fortune to keep ‘em strung. I suppose u probably do it urself

[@peterk9445]

Breaking a poly string every hour shows he plays a different game to me😮.

[@richpower07]

Great interview!

[@NachtwaechterSchlafprodukte]

Best pro racquet interview I have ever Seen. Kudos!

[@pliskanova]

New strings every 45 min, must feel crisp 😀

[@ommpaloomplak53]

Very transparent nice!

[@dinosaur6001]

Really interesting to know that pros use RPM Team

[@brianlin4044]

I want that hoodie he has

[@therealdavidleong]

0:39 so he's using an extended length racquet?

[@josh-yq4pz]

yes it’s is around 27.7 inches

[@michaelp9061]

Yes. He uses one slightly longer than 27.5

[@rdmalonso1]

He’s a beast The swing weights of those extended racquets are high. I couldn’t hit it. It was like trying to swing a pole vault

[@paddlepower888]

Probably the most well adjusted player in the game today.

[@fiendlyfranca]

PLZ INTEVIEW RYBAKINA ..VCORE 100!!

[@Deedot1028]

he uses the dr

[@kkt391]

Unreal how he can say that his strings only last an hour in match.

[@ggryffiths]

He should try rev instead of spin.

[@eincan1313]

I think he knows what he is doing and may not need some advice from some random guy on KZbin 😂

[@ggryffiths]

@@eincan1313 Possible but some Yonex pros have been switching so maybe that could unlock something? I mean his track record in big finals isn't great.....

[@ggryffiths]

But it is true that tennis is about much more than gear.

[@tenniswarehouse]

I could see why he chooses the Poly Tour Spin, I actually prefer it over the Rev. I found Poly Tour Spin to be pretty firm, but actually feels pretty crisp; low powered but I think the Poly Tour Pro helps in the crosses. Troy, TW

[@eincan1313]

I hear you, but a couple of things…. 1. ATP guys rarely change equipment. 2. Ruud has had an excellent career and is playing great this year. 3. Strings are very subjective. I am guessing you like Rev, but there are plenty that don’t including myself.

[@purescum9002]

Breaks strings in an hour 😮

[@revio000]

No way. Not a poly like this think what he means is breaks them in so they loose too much tension. A gut you can for sure break but not this

[@vidpromjm]

Difference between top ATP pros and rec players. Big spin hitters especially on clay courts will shred any strings except maybe kevlar.

[@rbarreira2]

​@@revio000You underestimate the stress these guys put on the strings. They hit with very heavy topspin and the balls they receive are also fast.

[@revio000]

Maybe you guys are correct however I'll still stand with what I've said before I see ex 400 players hit and rarely see them break a string in 2h I'mnot saying they are ruuds standard but believe you me they hit a very very big ball and the only time id see somebody go through a string in that time would be a gut in mains. I'm still sure he means breaks them in so they loose tension enough for him to feel conscious of his shots but maybe you guys are correct. I won't believe it until I see it lets put it that way no disrespect towards you whatsoever :)

[@lartisan6274]

poly tour string is the most strong string, hard to break, but him racket is 100, and tension 24kg, so its get fragile. Manarino never break.
