About WILSON : Canadian-born Thomas Wilson established the company in 1914, partnering with American Jack Kramer in the late 1950’s  who created the Jack Kramer Autograph, which turned out to be one of the top-selling racquets of all time.  In 1967, the company introduced the first steel racquet, the Wilson T2000. – endorsed by Jimmy Connors  In the 1980s Wilson began developing rackets with an entirely new construction made with graphite and Kelva.  Pete Sampras used the original Kevlar Pro Staff 85 racket,for the majority of his entire professional career.  Wilson continued to present day positioning themselves among the game’s legends by signing both Roger Federer and Serena Williams Williams have both used Wilson racquets to win a stunning number of combined major singles championships in their careers.
