The Pro Staff 97 V13 is the 2020 version of Wilson's classic racquet, with black paint and red and yellow stripes that recall the old Pro Staffs. It weighs 315 g unstrung and 332 g strung, with a 97 in² head, a 16x19 pattern and a thin 21.5 mm beam. Tennis Warehouse measured 66 RA and a swingweight of 321. The Braid 45, with graphite and aramid fibers braided at 45 degrees, increased the time the ball stays on the strings and made the feel softer. It is a precision and stability racquet for players with clean strokes.

The RR Score is not yet a precise figure. It summarizes the data we have today (specs and reviews) and changes as more information comes in. A low score does not mean the racquet is bad and does not reflect its technical quality: often it is just missing data or reviews. The specs combine several sources and may have discrepancies: check the manufacturer's website and the store where you buy.
