What Serena Williams used to ask Wilson to do with her rackets which no player has ever requested again
Wilson has had some of the greatest tennis players of all time use their rackets and that includes Serena Williams.
Throughout her illustrious 27-year career, the 43-year-old used the iconic racket manufacturer, and achieved some great results while using their rackets.
The American earned 23 Grand Slam singles titles while using Wilson, in addition to 14 major doubles titles alongside sister Venus Williams.
Now, two years after she retired from tennis, a Wilson racket manufacturer disclosed something Serena Williams said that left him stunned.
What promise did Serena Williams make to her Wilson racket expert?
Williams’ greatest strength on a tennis court was her power and aggression, which overwhelmed many of her opponents.
Her ruthless performances all came with a Wilson racket, and she was very specific with which racket she wanted to use at a particular time.
Ron Rocchi, Wilson’s Racket Innovation Manager, who worked with Williams, appeared on Andy Roddick’s ‘Served’ podcast to share the story of a vow the former World number made when deciding which racket to use.
