Roger Federer recently got a haircut and is no longer sporting his typical long-haired look on the court.
Fed made quick work of Potito Starace in the second round of the BNL d’Italia on Tuesday, winning 6-1, 6-2 in just 51 minutes. He had 35 winners compared to just eight unforced errors, and he broke serve four times.
Federer was wearing a rarely seen look, too. He got a haircut and his hair is now cropped pretty tightly on the sides and much shorter on the top. When he first came on tour, he had a ponytail. In recent years, he still wore his hair long on top so that it spilled over his headband while he played. Though he still wore a headband on Tuesday, Federer didn’t have to worry about his hair getting in his face.
Below are a few more looks at his new ‘do:

He kind of looks like Quentin Tarantino in that profile shot, huh?
Federer’s haircut is not quite as drastic of a change as Tim Lincecum, but it’s still pretty noticeable.
