Davydenko Wins Biggest Title of Career with New Prince Shoes & Racquet

We touched on this this morning, but its worth bringing up again, especially based on Davydenko's 6-4, 6-2 schooling of Rafael Nadal this afternoon. We wouldn't be so bold as to say that a racquet and shoe switch could cause the biggest tourney win and two of the biggest single's wins (Nadal & Roddick) of the world #4's life, but it doesn't seem to have hurt. Davydenko switched the the slightly larger Ozone Pro Tour (with denser string pattern as well) and donned the new Prince OV1 shoes.

BTW, if I were Prince I'd be pretty excited at Davydenko's hat change in the second set. For the first set, and the very beginning of the second, Davydenko wore the cap of his apparel sponsor, Airness. But as the match continued to solidify in Nikolay's favor, on came the white cap with the Prince "O" prominently on the front.
