The 20-time Grand Slam champion was not allowed to use the logo for the past couple of years, as Nike reportedly used that time to sell the remainder of its Federer apparel. The 38-year-old superstar has continued to wear Nike shoes at his matches since leaving the brand and signing with Uniqlo for a rumored $30 million annually. Neither Federer nor Uniqlo have indicated what they may have planned with the RF logo. Head Names Keenan, Bardsley to Senior Positions Head North America has promoted two senior managers.

    Get Fit with the Right Racquet Manufacturers Continue to Add fl Exibility and Comfort Features to Their Frames

    OUTLOOK 2019: RACQUETS Get Fit With the Right Racquet Manufacturers continue to add fl exibility and comfort features to their frames. By Nate Pagel he new year brings us a wide range of new racquets. Styles and preferences ebb and fl ow, and lately we have seen many racquet designs shift from fl ashy to minimalist—including most of Wilson’s racquets, the Dunlop CX line, and Head’s Speed, Extreme and TInstinct racquet lines. We’ve also started to see racquets become more fl exible and softer on the arm; specifi cally, the success of the Prince Phantom line, Babolat’s softening of its ever-popular Pure Aero line, and the new Wilson Clash. In addition to the standbys, it’s exciting to see some new names in the racquet industry. Diadem, previously focused mainly on strings, enters the marketplace; Snauwaert is an old company making a new run. Both of these companies released several racquets in 2018, with more to come. At the U.S. Racquet Stringers Association, we emphasize the need to “fi t” players properly.
