Product Overview
Inspired by the elegance and atmosphere of Roland-Garros 2025, the Blade 98 (16x19) V9 Session de Soirée delivers a limited-edition aesthetic with uncompromising performance. Designed for advanced players who thrive on precision and connection to the ball, this racket is a powerful expression of Wilson’s most control-oriented frame, reimagined through the rich textures and colour palette of Parisian clay court nights.

Engineered with StableFeel and DirectConnect technologies, this latest-generation Blade enhances overall frame stiffness and torsional stability, allowing for a sharper, more connected-to-the-ball experience. The FORTYFIVE° carbon layup works in tandem with a braided graphite + basalt construction, giving the frame flexibility without sacrificing control – a key benefit for modern vertical swings.

This 305g unstrung frame also features a Click & Go bumper system for fast, clean grommet replacements, while Parallel Drilling technology ensures a more forgiving string bed and enlarged sweet spot.
