Babolat Pure Drive, I’ve been using it for a few years. Highly favours a high topspin game, a bit expensive but worth it (to me at least).

It’s the same racquet Nadull uses

Edit: had that confused with the bumblebee for a second

Im not big on babolat regardless but puredrive is decent

Sidenote: I recently got a semi-endorsement with Diadem..tried one of their racquets and it was straight up basura. Neither me nor my best student could control our forehands with it at all.

It retails at a ridiculous price too. I dont even know if I could flip it in good faith

Their tennis balls are really good though I might order a few hundred for teaching

Is joker playing?

Yes, he's not giving up a free major. This is an asterisk title if there ever was one. They should cancel the event.

I'm thinking about entering it this year brehs. It's just there for the taking. I can take these second tier Croatians, Serbs and Scandinavians. Who's joining me for the doubles? @Buckeye Fever ? Here I go it's my shot, feet fail me not..
