Limited-edition control frame for experienced players, inspired by the look of the 2025 Roland-Garros tournament.
Building on nearly 20 years of dominance, Wilson's Blade performance rackets continue to be the preferred choice of avid competitors looking for ultimate control, feel and stability. The Blade 98 (16x19) V9 has a sharper, more stable response that produces a more connected-to-the-ball feel. Featuring a new Emerald Night matte finish, the V9 has a braided graphite + basalt frame with a DirectConnect carbon fiber handle for enhanced torsional stability. It also features an open string pattern with a more forgiving response, which delivers consistent, spin-friendly shots.
