Blade 98 (18X20) V10 Tennis Racquet

Wilson’s Blade performance tennis rackets deliver perfect control to dominate in big moments. For the 10th edition of this iconic franchise, we’ve elevated the design for the modern player, incorporating insights from nine generations of innovation. For the Blade 98 18×20 V10, we raised the beam height in the upper hoop by 1mm to create a subtle taper that improves racket head stability and injects a dose of effortless power for extra aggression.
