Wilson Pro Staff 97L v13 Tennis Racquets

The Wilson Pro Staff 97L v13 Tennis Racquet brings all the precision and feel of the previous generations with some key updates. Wilson has updated the Pro Staff 97L with Braid 45 technology. Braid 45 gives the racquets graphite/aramid fibers a 45 degree angle weave for increased feel, ball-pocketing and stability.

The Pro Staff 97L is one of the whippiest control racquets on the market thanks to its 10.8 ounce (306g) strung weight. This racquet is a much more accessible Pro Staff than the regular 97 (which is too heavy even for most advanced players).

The Pro Staff 97L remains one of the best control-oriented racquets for beginner/intermediate level players looking for a lightweight option.

New aesthetics include the classic red and yellow stripes which made their appearance in the Pro Staff 6.0 tennis racquet made famous by Pete Sampras and Roger Federer. This shout-out to its historic roots gives some nostalgia for those old enough to remember! The hoop of the frame also has a section of unhidden braiding (similar to the look of carbon fiber) for aesthetic appeal.
