Wilson Blade 98 18x20 V10 Tennis Racket

Wilson Blade 98 18x20 V10 Tennis Racquet

The Wilson Blade 98 18x20 V10 Tennis Racquet is built for advanced and competitive players who want maximum control, precision, and a connected feel. Updated for the 10th generation, this model improves stability and adds easier power while preserving the signature response that has made the Blade series a favourite among skilled players.

Wilson raised the beam height in the upper hoop by 1 mm to create a subtle Turbo Taper. This updated shape improves racquet-head stability and helps generate more depth and pace without sacrificing control. The revised frame construction also provides greater torsional stability, creating a more dependable response on fast swings and off-centre contact.

The dense 18x20 string pattern delivers a firmer, more controlled string-bed response with enhanced directional accuracy and touch. It also improves string durability, making the Blade 98 18x20 V10 ideal for players who take full swings and prefer precision over free power.

Finished in a distinctive Championship Green colourway, this racquet combines modern performance technology with the classic control and feel associated with the Blade family.
