THIS is the racquet that Roger Federer uses. That fact alone sells a lot of these sticks regardless of whether the person buying it actually can decently play with the stick. You dont ask if the racquet is good enough for you. You should ask yourself if your good enough for it.Weighing in at a hefty 12.5oz and with a headsize of 90 inches, this is definitely not a racquet that forgives. The tiny sweetspot means anything you hit slightly off target will cost you, but as with many players racquets with similar spec, the upside of being good enough to play with it brings unparalleled control and feel of your shots.
