The mid-tier 2021 99, sold pre-strung in many markets. Medium-flex shaft with the wide-grommet 99 frame made it the approachable option for club players moving to a head-heavy racket.

  • Forgiving medium shaft
  • Accessible price
  • Looks identical to the Pro
  • Less precise and less powerful than Tour/Pro
  • Superseded in 2025
  • Head-heavy balance can tire newer players
