Wilson Laver Cup Rf 01 Pro Tennis Racket

Wilson Laver Cup RF 01 Pro Limited Edition Tennis Racket

The Wilson Laver Cup RF 01 Pro Limited Edition Tennis Racket is a performance racket developed in close collaboration with Roger Federer for advanced players who value precision, feel and shot variety. With a 98 in² head, 16 x 19 string pattern and 31.5 cm balance, it is built for experienced players who can generate their own racket head speed and want a stable, connected response when changing direction, spin or tempo.

This limited edition brings the RF 01 Pro performance platform into Wilson's Laver Cup 2026 London Collection, combining Federer's performance driven design with the aesthetic of the tournament at The O2.

Developed with Roger Federer

The RF 01 Pro was tested and refined with Federer to reflect the balanced, precise and controlled characteristics of his all court game. Its specifications make it the more demanding performance option, with the 320 g unstrung weight and 98 in² head placing greater emphasis on the player's own technique and timing.

For an advanced player, that gives you a substantial platform behind the ball while retaining the ability to vary your shot selection throughout a rally.

The aerodynamic SABR inspired frame shape is designed to move quickly through the air, helping experienced players accelerate the racket when changing pace or generating spin.

Braid 45 construction contributes stability and ball pocketing, while the internally PU foam filled frame manages vibration to create a cleaner, more connected feel at impact.

The result is a racket designed around versatility rather than one specific shot. You can redirect the ball, change tempo or add spin while maintaining useful feedback from the frame.

Who is the RF 01 Pro best for?

The Wilson RF 01 Pro is best for advanced tennis players who value feel, precision, racket feedback and the ability to vary their shots. Its 320 g unstrung weight, 98 in² head and 31.5 cm balance suit players with the technique to manage a substantial performance racket and use its stability and feedback effectively.

What should you consider before buying?

At 320 g unstrung, the RF 01 Pro is a substantial racket intended for advanced players. That extra mass can provide stability through contact, but it also requires more strength, preparation and technique to manoeuvre effectively over a full match.

Players wanting the RF experience in a more forgiving and manoeuvrable package should consider the standard Wilson Laver Cup RF 01 Limited Edition.

Frequently asked questions

Who should use the Wilson RF 01 Pro?

The Wilson RF 01 Pro is designed for advanced tennis players with established technique who value precision, feel and shot variety. Its 320 g unstrung weight and 98 in² head make it a more demanding racket that rewards players capable of generating their own racket head speed.

How heavy is the Wilson RF 01 Pro?

The Wilson RF 01 Pro weighs 320 g unstrung. Its unstrung balance is 31.5 cm, or 9 points head light, which moves more of that weight towards the handle rather than the racket head.

What is the head size of the RF 01 Pro?

The Wilson RF 01 Pro has a 98 in² head size. This gives advanced players a precise hitting platform and makes clean timing and consistent contact more important than with a larger, more forgiving head size.

What string pattern does the RF 01 Pro use?

The Wilson RF 01 Pro uses a 16 x 19 string pattern. This relatively open pattern supports string movement for power and spin, complementing a racket designed to let advanced players vary direction, shape and tempo.

Is the RF 01 Pro suitable for beginners?

The RF 01 Pro is designed for advanced players rather than beginners. Its 320 g unstrung weight and 98 in² head require established technique and make it more demanding to use than a lighter, more forgiving tennis racket.
