About This Item

For Roger Federer's last year on tour, he needed a tennis racket that would help him compete with the new generation of heavy baseliners while maintaining his all-court style. The Wilson RF 01 Future is inspired by that racket. It's our lightest RF racket of the collection with a slightly higher balance, making it highly maneuverable with additional power for next-generation players. The SABR Frame Design gives it versatility, allowing for the pace, spin and direction changes signature to Roger's game. You'll notice a fast head speed thanks to Glide Guard B&G and a great ball-pocketing feel from Braid 45 Technology

Love My New Toy

Obviously it has turned me into a star player, even at the old age of 41 (that's how I justified it to my wife anyway)... but it's not only a decent racquet, it's as hot as they come Very happy with it

Lovely Looking Platform For Perfect Customization

Because of the Future its low standard entry-level weight, it is kind of the ‘perfect RF01’ as a basic platform to tune it to any desired balans and weight distribution. So you can highly customize this RF01 ‘Future’ version to your desired balans and stability upto your ideal weight while still staying around a standard RF01 for weight and without the total strung weight becoming too heavy for non-Pro’s (like the even heavier ‘Pro’ version). That is if you like the balans, stability and sweetspot to be different from any stock RF01 a/o want to playfully experiment with added lead in different places without too much constraint of your RF01 becoming too ‘Pro’ of even heavier! FYI I modded my RF01f its strung weight and balance to become exactly like my trusty workhorse, the Dunlop Hotmelt 300G (310gr strung, 33,5cm/3 pts HL), to support more power and depth into my groundstrokes than a standard RF01 offers (despite the Future being the most head-heavy of the 3). After-all, I’m not Roger and need more support in that area than a standard RF01(f) is giving me without sacrificing too much feel and control this beauty is given by Wilson ‘out of the box’. This racket plays very subtle with heaps of feedback and control! I realy like my customized RF01f strung with the excellent Luxilon Alu Power125 at 23,5KG.👌 Besides, I really love the look and subtle quality finish of the RF01 line. Great job Wilson & Roger!
