Watch: Wilson Launches Limited Blade, Burn Release

Roland Garros' red clay will pop with added color this month.

Wilson has launched its 2017 Limited Edition (LE) Blade and Burn racquet lines, which feature new, highly visible and bold bursts of electric lime green and vibrant orange.

Some of Wilson's prominent player endorsers called for the color shift.

These exclusive racquet designs were inspired by tennis player feedback that confident,strong colors on a racket is a simple, yet powerful way they can express their individual style on court.

Monte Carlo semifinalist David Goffin says precision plus feel makes the Blade his racquet of choice.

"I love the bright green frame (of the Blade) and how it pops on the tennis court," said Goffin. "I’ve had a great season with my Blade so far; it’s a racquet that gives me great precision and feel, which is perfect for my game. Now, it has this new cool design element that will make a statement on court and reflect my tenacity as a player.”

Kei Nishikori has played with the Wilson Burn in recent years.

"The Burn orange has become my signature color and the boldness, intensity of the Limited Edition Burn really matches my game," said Nishikori. "This racket looks amazing in action, and I’m looking to get some big wins this year playing with it.”
