Product Overview
The Yonex VCORE 98 GEN8 provides the accuracy and feel that intermediate to advanced players have come to know the VCore racquets for. The 98 square inch head size gives intermediate to advanced players the precision and control they desire without the added head size or weight to slow them down.
For 2026, Yonex redesigned the beam for a faster, more aerodynamic shape while also thickening it in key locations for added stability and power. Additional 2026 updates include wider grommet holes for increased string movement and greater snapback, and a longer inner trench at the tip for added flex and pocketing.
