The Wilson Pro Staff RF 97 Autograph, designed by Roger Federer, is the natural evolution of Wilson’s ProStaff series.
If the basic characteristics remain unchanged from the previous models, Wilson and Federer add new features here and there.
From the new dark look to the face of Federer, to the details embossed with the laser, this new RF 97 becomes the Wilson style-conscious racket. Even the structure of the frame itself makes it easier to hit the ball and return to the defensive position, thanks to its graphite frame and a balance moved towards the handle.
Compared to the previous versions the Pro Staff 97 RF Autograph has a slightly wider and angular profile, thus obtaining more power and thrust in the strokes. Its 357 g (strung) make this Pro Staff capable of generating maximum thrust in the shots as well as an excellent stability of the game, guaranteeing an excellent performance in every moment of the game.
This new Wilson frame is undoubtedly destined to become a cult model for tennis lovers.
