This may vary, though, depending on factors such as temperature and humidity during tournaments. This goes to show that paying attention to your equipment and its tiny details can make a whole lot of difference when playing at the very top of the game.
Another player that drives this detail home is Andy Murray. Pre-Wimbledon , he switched to using the same string set as his worst rivals, that is, a hybrid of Natural Gut and All Power. However, in a different set-up and because of his style of play and what he felt he needed in order to obtain an ad-vantage over his opponents, the Plain Alu Power was switched to the mains while the Natural Gut VS Team was on the crosses. What he did was basically remove the textured Alu Power Rough strings in order to generate less spin, gaining more pinpoint accuracy and control.
This means that he definitely felt that he needed more power and less topspin on his shots, especially when playing against the Big Three. For a player like Roger Federer who is an attacking Player, his strings are set up in such a way that they give him more power.

No, not at all correct. Djokovic uses a very control-oriented racquet and string setup, more-so than most players. Like Murray, he needs to be inch-perfect with each shot.
