Yonex is always making great racquets better. The new VCore seventh generation models are no exception. More feel, more precision, and more spin gets you more wins. And, now with more aesthetic appeal. How did they do it?
Silicone Oil Infused Grommets- lubricants for the strings. This produces more spin and a bigger sweet spot.
New Frame Shape- A thinner beam increases aerodynamics and head speed, and a 1.9% wider string bed width across the 2 and 10 o'clock position increases ball contact area for a larger sweet spot and increased launch angle.
Beautiful Color- You will love this Scarlet/San Beige color. This is perhaps the most elegant looking racquet in the tennis market today.
Headsize- 98 s.i.
Weight- 305 g / 10.8 oz (unstrung)
Length- 27 in.
Balance- 315 (unstrung)
Beam- 23mm / 23mm / 21mm

Ray's assessment- This is one of the best frames for an intermediate advanced player. The VCore 98 Gen. 7 has it all: access to spin, good precision, solid feel, and a little pop for the big serve. You have waited years to be good enough for a racquet like this. You are ready to start separating yourself from the other local hitters and take a spot at the top of your section. You might already have a promising college career ahead of you. Swing for the fences and know this racquet is gonna provide some sweet spin. Use Yonex PolyTour Rev as a whole set or blend it with Tecnifibre Razor Soft in the crosses for a little more pocketing.
