Djokovic new racket in 2018


If you paid attention at today’s match, you could see Djokovic with a slightly different service motion. To me that indicated a change in racket weight distribution, which forces him to get in the trophy position in a different way. Also if you look at the picture you can spot that his new string pattern is 18/19 which clearly demonstrates a new racket. If you are familiar with Djokovic lead setup on the hoop of the racket you can also spot less lead on the sides.

I could conclude that his racket is slightly lighter and with a bigger head size but can’t really cay at the moment, but everything suggests that, especially the new swing mechanics. I will try to gather more information in the following days.
