Looks like James Willstrop just started using the Prince Pro Beast 750 at the 2015 Swedish Open.
Update: in 2016 he started using the Unsquashable Y-Tec Pro

This is a bit of a surprise to me, as he had been appearing in ads for the Prince Pro Tour 850.
For his shoes, he’s still rocking the Adidas Adipower Stabil 10.1.
Thanks to Jason for the tip!

Fallows and Parker have also switched to unsquashable.

Looks like Prince has dropped James. He seems to be using Unsquashable racket for the 2016 Nationals https://plus.google.com/photos/+SteveCubbins/albums/6249971869381539281/6250078447563491218?pid=6250078447563491218&oid=100655331621782539210

It’s kind of strange to see him not using a Prince racket anymore. I also can’t figure out what model Unsquashable racket this actually is.

This is a great spot…!
I am curious about how James will hold up, we’ve seen other players struggle when they switched from racket brand. Omar Mosaad, for example, seemed to have some small timing issues when he switched from Tecnifibre to Head.

Here it is: the Unsquashable Y-Tec Pro.

Even more interesting: what kind of strings is he using? These don’t look like the TF 305 1.20 strings he normally uses…

Good spot Tjeerd. Can’t tell for sure but they actually look like the factory Prince strings.
