    Looks like Dipikia is using a ladies version of the Adidas Feather Shoes

      Thanks Hrysto, I think he is using the older version of the Prince EXO3 Rebel.

    Pierre – for the Worlds, can you try to ID the string on Saurav’s racquet. He’s the only guy with red strings, but not sure where they’re from.

    Great review of the US Open equipment!

    Thanks!

      Thanks Brock, a bit hard to tell for certain but could be Tecnifibre X One Biphase.

    I’m seeing Asics are still the shoe of choice for most of the women. Also noted a few Dunlop racquets there. Thought there would be more Oliver ones. But this is interesting to see what the pros play with. Thanks for this.

    I think Daryl was wearing Mizuno Wave Hurricanes – but I could be wrong!

    Thanks for the roundup!!!!

    still seeing lots of Adidas…i wonder if we’ll start seeing more and more Salming shoes …..

      Glad you enjoyed! Miguel went out in the first round, I think to Coppinger (a fellow Salming ambassador), and so I didn’t catch him in this roundup because I’ve only done the last 16.
