Filip Cristian Jianu is a Romanian tennis player with a lot of success on clay courts and a career ATP high rank of no 211. But what is Filip Jianu’s racquet and gear?
Filip Jianu’s tennis racquet
Filip Jianu’s racquet is a Dunlop FX 500, but it is likely an older model underneath the cosmetic. My guess is that it is the Dunlop Revo CV 3.0 F that Jack Draper uses. We are currently testing this racquet and will create a video review for our members.
We are not familiar with Filip Jianu’s racquet specs or the string and tension he uses. Please comment below, if you know.
