Wilson's most storied player's frame, updated for 2026 but built on the same philosophy: a compact 97 sq in head and dense string pattern for players who want to shape the ball, not just hit it. This is not a forgiving racquet — it's for players who can already control full swings and want a frame that answers back honestly.

Technology
Paradigm Bending — A layup technology that optimizes the flex ratio between the hoop and shaft, recapturing the classic Pro Staff feel of earlier generations while improving ball pocketing and precision on full cuts.
FORTYFIVE° — A patented carbon layup that arranges graphite fibers at a 45-degree angle to optimize lateral bending through impact, increasing dwell time and pocketing for greater command over the ball.
Braided Graphite & Aramid — The Pro Staff's signature construction — high-performance graphite braided with aramid fibers for maximum stiffness, directional stability, and the responsive, dampened feel the line is known for.
String Mapping — Creates denser string spacing in the center of the string bed for control with wider spacing toward the margins for greater comfort on off-center hits.
