Wilson Pro Staff 97 Classic

Description

Combining classic Pro Staff aesthetics with modern performance, the Pro Staff 97 Classic is built for advanced players who value precision and control.

The 97 square inch head size delivers enhanced control through a tighter, more demanding sweet spot. Weighing 11.1 ounces unstrung, the racquet offers excellent stability and power on full swings for players who can handle its mass consistently over the course of a match. Its head-light balance improves manoeuvrability, helping generate racquet-head speed and enabling quick reactions at the net for decisive volleys. A flexible beam completes the frame, providing a more controlled and comfortable feel at contact.

The Pro Staff’s technology is built around delivering classic feel with modern performance. Paradigm Bending uses a strategically engineered carbon fibre construction to shift flexibility into the shaft, enhancing precision and feel while still maintaining power. A denser string bed through String Mapping improves control and response, while Braid 45 construction allows the frame to flex more naturally at impact for superior ball pocketing and stability. Finished with a classically inspired design, the racquet connects Pro Staff heritage with decades of modern innovation.

For longtime Pro Staff players, the 97 Classic preserves the familiar precision and feel you expect, while modern updates deliver smoother flex, improved pocketing, and more consistent performance. For new players, it offers an ideal introduction to the Pro Staff lineage; a control-focused racquet with modern stability, comfort, and power that rewards confident, aggressive swings.
