Wilson Pro Staff 97UL Classic Tennis Racquet - Black

The Wilson Pro Staff 97UL Classic is the lightest model in the Pro Staff Classic collection, combining effortless manoeuvrability with the iconic precision and control of the Pro Staff family. Its lightweight 270g unstrung frame is ideal for players seeking a fast, responsive racquet without sacrificing stability and feel.

Featuring Paradigm Bending technology, the frame is engineered to optimise flex between the shaft and hoop for a more responsive feel. The 45° double braid construction helps the frame flex and “breathe” at impact, increasing dwell time for enhanced control and a more connected response.
