Yonex VCORE 98L 8th Gen Tennis Racquet
Built for speed, spin and effortless maneuverability, the Yonex VCORE 98L (8th Generation) delivers the explosive performance of the VCORE series in a lighter, faster-swinging frame. Designed for intermediate players, competitive juniors and players who prefer a more maneuverable racquet, the VCORE 98L combines easy access to spin with impressive control and comfort.
At the heart of the racquet is Yonex’s Energized Isometric head shape, engineered to expand the sweet spot and create a wider spin window. This design allows players to generate heavier spin while maintaining consistent power and control—even on off-center contact. The 98 sq. in. head and open 16x19 string pattern provide a precise yet spin-friendly response, making it easier to attack with confidence from the baseline or react quickly at the net.
For 2026, Yonex introduces a new aerodynamic beam structure that improves racquet head speed while reinforcing key areas for added stability and power. Updated grommet technology increases string movement and snapback, allowing players to generate greater RPMs with less effort. The redesigned inner frame also improves ball pocketing, creating a more connected and responsive feel at contact.
Comfort is further enhanced through Servo Filter technology, a thin elastic layer embedded within the graphite construction that absorbs harsh vibrations while maintaining optimal frame flex. Combined with Vibration Dampening Mesh (VDM) in the handle and 2G-Namd FlexForce graphite, the VCORE 98L delivers a plush, arm-friendly feel without sacrificing spin or responsiveness.
Fast through the air, spin-friendly and incredibly playable, the VCORE 98L 8th Gen is ideal for players looking to swing faster, generate heavier spin and control rallies with precision.
