Roger Federer's Racket From 2011 French Open Final vs. Rafael Nadal Up for Auction

The racket Roger Federer used when battling Rafael Nadal at the 2011 French Open is up for action.

Goldin Auctions is offering the racket at auction through Saturday. Bidding was up to $18,000 as of Saturday afternoon.

The Wilson Six One Tour racket features Federer's signature on the handle.

Goldin states the racket is photo-matched from the 2011 French Open Finals.

To get to the finals, Federer ended Novak Djokovic's perfect season and 43-match win streak in the semifinal.

He then took on Nadal, who claimed a 7–5, 7–6, 5–7, 6–1 victory over Federer for the French Open title.

A Federer racket used during the 2011 Roland Garros final previously sold for just over $55,000 at auction in a 2020 sale by Goldin.

The sale comes just over one month after Prestige Memorabilia sold the racket Federer used to win Wimbledon in 2004 for just over $118,000.

Signed for Anna Wintour and her daughter, that racket was the only one to hit auction after being photomatched to a Federer Grand Slam victory, according to Prestige Auctions.
