Wilson celebrates the career of a legend.

Introducing the RF 01 Pro Hall of Fame! Featuring the same specs and playability as the standard RF 01 Pro, this racquet's cosmetic lists Federer's iconic achievements. Under the paint, you'll find a racquet co-designed by Roger for the twilight of his playing career. It underwent exhaustive testing and tweaking by Federer, bearing the mark of insights gleaned over one of the most remarkable careers in tennis history. Compared to his RF97 Autograph, the RF 01 Pro Hall of Fame has a slightly more forgiving head size, along with a lighter weight and thicker, more aerodynamic beam construction. The upshot is a more explosive weapon, one that is better suited to the speed, spin, and pop of the modern game. This racquet's design is appropriately named SABR, a moniker that epitomizes Federer's attacking style. It includes a powerful carbon fiber layup with Braid FORTYFIVE technology to enhance both dwell time and pocketing while helping the racquet bend in ways that complement the vertical mechanics of the modern game (think spin). It also features foam throughout the racquet to deliver a more solid feel, coupled with a reinforced shaft and yoke for more torsional stability (think less racquet flopping on volleys). Ultimately, the RF 01 Pro Hall of Fame is not only a great snapshot of Federer's evolution; it's also hard to put down. The cosmetic listing his greatest achievements makes this is a great collectible.

Not bad but way too stiffThis is not a bad racquet - control and stability are definitely there, holds up pretty well on incoming heavy balls and is ever so slightly more powerful than a pro staff 97 v14. However the head feels big and thick, I didn’t notice this advertised faster through the air thing at all. Coming off the six one tour 90 and the RF97A, this RF01 pro feels the stiffest of them all, bordering uncomfortable. Never had any issues with RF97A, but with this I started feeling my wrist and elbow. Definitely needs to be strung lower than normal, dare I say by 4-5lbs. The feel is very raw, brassy off-center, nothing like the RF97A. Outside the Roger’s fan base this is a very niche racquet, I honestly struggle to understand who is it for. It’s not a big upgrade from the PS97v14 and in some way a downgrade from the RF97A

I love this thing!Went to a Wilson demo day at my local courts. Tried out their whole line. I enjoyed the Pro Staff v14. Felt similar to my Head Radical Pro with more feel due to the beam shape. I grabbed the RF01 Pro and I instantly loved it. I’m not even a die hard Fed fan boy. The RF01 Pro is like the Pro Staff v14 but pulled in a bit more with more plow through. You need a full swing and good technique to get the most out of this. Heavy racquet. I don’t think this will be my main racquet at tournaments but I really enjoy practicing with this and playing a low stakes match with friends. Easy to miss hit if you don’t have clean technique.

Yes, but.How many players bemoan having to find a new racquet because the manufacturers insist on pushing something different? The RF97 was a rare exception, kept virtually the same for many years. I imagine that there are a lot of players who have grooved their game using the RF97. It’s great that Roger and Wilson want to continue evolving racquet design. But for those of us who are happy with our current racquet … please give us the choice. Thanks.

Wilson RF 01 Pro ClassicI brought a Wilson RF 01 Pro Classic a few months ago after I had my 2 Pro Staff v 12 and v13 RF Autograph tennis racquets stolen. Even though it is a very nice racquet, I find this racquet to light and I am always to early on my hits. I see Wilson have just brought out a New Pro Staff 97 Classic with the same specs as the V 14. I would have loved them to have brought out a NEW Pro Staff 97 Autograph v14 with the same specs as the V 12 or V13 as these are the best Wilson racquets I have ever played with. The cost to replace these racquets are of the charts on Ebay. So please Wilson talk to Roger Federer and see whether he will agree to bring out a re release of his Pro Staff RF 97 Autograph tennis racquets as I am sure they will be a hit and sell well. I would be only to pleased to trail a new Pro Staff RF 97 Autograph V14 or V15 and write a review and video on it results. I am a 68 year old who still coaches and enjoys a hit out nearly each day.

My New RacquetI am very happy with my purchase. I love the new strings as well. This racquet is light and fast. I have good feel on my volleys and the power is still effortless even though the design is slim compared to wide body technology from the past.

A great racquetThis is a great racquet, and I am really glad I chose to purchase this one. The weight took some adjustment, and it’s certainly not for everyone, but I would recommend it to those who like a heavy racquet. In regards to tennis warehouse itself, I liked the delivery time, and the fact that you could get it strung however you wanted before having it shipped.

Not for meAs someone who is a RF fan and loved the Prostaff 90 and RF 97, I could not play with this racquet. Finding the sweet spot was extremely difficult and the vibration on the hand was really tough. It was really good for returns and volleys, serve was pretty nice too but ground strokes were extremely difficult to get used to. I will be switching back to the RF97 with the hope that they will do a limited release at some point in the future.
