Argentinian ATP player Leonardo Mayer was in the spotlight again after a tough season yesterday when he beat top-seed Albert Ramos-Vinolas in Hamburg. What racquet does he use?

Vasek Pospisil is a promising Canadian 26-year-old whose career has been bumpy due to injuries and inconsistent results, but people who have seen him play knows he has the game to beat pretty much anyone. Yesterday he showed that to everyone when he beat current world number one Andy Murray in Indian Wells 6-4 7-6.
