Description

The VCORE 98 Tour is suitable for advanced and experienced players who need a racquet to provide elevated control and precision with the ability to deliver on aggressive spin that stands up to strong opponents and delivers on a big game.

The headsize of 98 square inches is on the smaller side of average and will provide players with a control-oriented response that should satisfy experienced players consistent in hitting with a smaller sweet spot. The weight of the frame is 11.1 ounces and being on the heavier side of average it will provide players with a very stable feel, great for big swings and redirecting fast-paced volleys. It's head light balance means that it will maintain great manoeuvrability, great for fast movement to enable quick reactions and heavy spin. The open string pattern will enable greater spin potential and additional power. The racquet's frame and throat design has been updated from the previous edition to improve the frame's stability and power generation.

With the 2023 edition, Yonex has updated their technology set to improve spin, power generation and overall comfort. The Silicon Oil infused grommets reduces friction between the strings and grommets thereby improving snapback of the strings which increases spin potential even further than before. Yonex has further enlarged the top of the frame which combined with the usual ISOMETRIC shape brings an even bigger sweet spot especially at the top of the string bed which allows players to make proper contact at the extent of the frame for even greater swing speed and ball spin as well as improving overall power generation and comfort that comes with a bigger sweet spot. Yonex has slightly increased the flexibility of the frame for improved comfort and control. Another key improvement is the new throat design that helps to stabilize the racquet for reduced overall power loss especially on imperfect contact with the ball. Yonex has retained the 2-NAMD FlexForce Graphite for optimized flex and snapback of the frame which provides excellent overall frame response for maximum spin potential.

With the 2023 edition of the VCORE series, the improved response, spin and comfort should elevate this racquet as a top contender for advanced players who need exceptional control with outstanding spin potential for an aggressive full court game.

    New for 2023, Silicone oil infused within the grommets reduces the friction between the string and the grommet resulting in greater snapback for improved spin and string response.

  • 2G-NAMD FLEX FORCE:
    Incorporated in the upper throat to the lower frame, Flex Force graphite allows for the racquet to quickly flex and snapback for maximum spin potential.
  • AERODYNAMIC TECHNOLOGY:
    Aero Trench and Aero Fin Technology reduce air resistance for easy manoeuvrability and added spin.

Photos used contain images of strings for illustration purposes. Adult tennis racquets are unstrung unless otherwise noted or stringing services have been selected above. Brand logo stencils are not applied by default with stringing services. If you request brand logo stencils, please note that a stencil is painted onto the strings within a brand's stencil and may wear off over time - this is how stencils are applied on tour. Depending on the string you select, the stencil paint application fullness, colour and visibility may vary.
Adult racquets generally do not come with covers. To protect your racquet, we recommend getting a racquet bag.

Product specs such as weight may vary slightly from racquet to racquet to what is advertised due to the manufacturing process.

Adult Racquets Sizing Information
Grip Size Length
L0 (4") 4" (4 inches)
L1 (4 1/8") 4 and 1/8" (4.125 inches)
L2 (4 1/4") 4 and 2/8" (4.25 inches)

To determine your grip size without using a racquet, measure from the tip of your ring finger to the major fold crease in your palm. Write down the distance to the nearest 8th of an inch. This is your standard grip size.

Grip size palm measurements for tennis racquets

If you fall somewhere between the measurements, it is recommended to choose the smaller grip size as you can always build the grip size up using an overgrip (for a slight increase) or a grip build-up sleeve (for a half or full size increase). The grip measurements above factor in the pre-installed factory grip.
