The Wilson Blade 98 18×20 V10 is the tenth generation of one of the most respected racquets in modern tennis. Used at the highest levels of the game, the Blade series has built its reputation on a uniquely plush, controlled feel that lets advanced players paint the lines with confidence.
The 98 square inch head and tight 18×20 string pattern are the heart of this racquet. Together they deliver pinpoint control, predictable response, and the flatter trajectory preferred by directional ball strikers. If you live in the back court and want to drive through the ball with precision rather than spin it heavily, this is your frame.
Wilson’s FortyFive layup technology, where carbon fibres are angled at 45 degrees rather than the traditional 90, gives the V10 its signature feel. The frame flexes uniformly through the hitting zone, producing the dampened, connected sensation that Blade loyalists return to year after year. You feel the ball on the strings rather than fighting a stiff, board-like response.
Strung weight sits in the classic advanced player range, giving you the stability to absorb pace from heavier hitters and redirect it with intent. This is not a racquet that does the work for you. It rewards proper technique with exceptional feedback and punishes lazy swings, which is exactly what serious players want.
The Wilson Blade 98 18×20 V10 is ideal for advanced club players, league competitors, and tournament players who prioritise control, feel, and shot-making precision. Available unstrung so you can dial in your string setup to match your game.
Restringing service available in-store. Tony and the team will recommend the right string and tension to get the most from this frame.
