I thought Chen Hong uses AT700 also.
Anyway, I bet all of them have lots of racquets to choose from. So it is possible to change a lot of racquets from games to games.

chen hong had made a change to mp99

Im just wondering, why do many pros choose MP99 over the MP100?
From what i know, the only difference is that the MP100 has titanium mesh and a colour difference.

The MP99 is simply a fantastic racquet.

Babolat Satelite Pulsar, I think.

I have seen players uses different racquets in early rounds than the final rounds before ( I forgot the names....Chinese players), also, they would use new racquets in some Yonex events.But my point is, how do you determine a player's main racquets? By showing up numbers? or By the Official data ? (ie: from Yonex.co.jp) or ....?

Bluejeff maybe your point should reflect the point of the thread .
I thank very much for the info double gave, exactly what i wanted to know.
I'm mostly interested to know what rackets they use because it feels good if you have bought a racket that actually elite players uses, then you know it really is good
And also it just is fun to get a little picture of what rackets they mainly use in general.

The MP99 has an even balance (vs. MP100's head heavy weighing), and so is much more maneuverable. That is the main difference I am aware of.

It seems like there are still some players are still preferring Ti-10
Mainly Asians........I wonder if it's because it's easier to get Ti-10 in Asia, so players don't have give up the lovely Ti-10s?

anyone know what weight (2U/3U/4U) their racquets are?
