Wilson Pro Staff 97 Classic Tennis Racket
Experience timeless control, precision, and legendary feel with the Wilson Pro Staff 97 Classic Tennis Racket. Inspired by the iconic Pro Staff rackets that have dominated courts since the 1980s, this modern classic blends vintage Wilson styling with advanced performance technology for today’s serious players.
The Pro Staff 97 Classic is designed for players who value pinpoint accuracy, connected feel, and exceptional stability. Featuring Paradigm Bending technology, the racket optimizes the bending profile between the shaft and hoop, allowing the frame to deliver classic Pro Staff precision while still providing modern power and responsiveness.
With Braid 45 construction, the double braided fibers are arranged at 45-degree angles, allowing the frame to flex and “breathe” more upon impact. This increases dwell time, improves pocketing, and maintains the rock-solid stability that gives the Pro Staff its signature feel. The String Mapping system places the strings closer together for a denser string bed, helping players achieve excellent control, feel, and shot placement.
Finished with a classically inspired design, the Wilson Pro Staff 97 Classic is perfect for advanced players, aggressive all-court players, and traditionalists who want a premium tennis racket with unmatched precision, stability, and heritage.
