Aryna Sabalenka's Racket & String Setup — Wilson Blade Power

Tennis Rackets Europe

Confidence: Reported. Widely tracked by gear sources and visible clues, not an official spec sheet. Tensions are baselines.

Quick setup

Racket (reported) Wilson Blade 98 (V9 18x20; testing V10)
String (reported) Luxilon ALU Power mains + Luxilon cross
Tension (reported) ~53 lb (historical baseline)

The setup logic

Sabalenka hits with huge power, so her frame and string have to add control and stability, not more pace. A dense 18x20 Blade with a firm control poly keeps that power in the court — stability first.

The real lesson for players

If you already generate power, your string job is control. A firm, low-power co-poly in a denser pattern frame keeps big swings reliable.
