Yonex VCORE 98L Tennis Racket - Unstrung 285g - Scarlet - Free Restring

The Yonex VCORE 98L is the light option in the VCORE line — a 98 sq in head and 16x19 pattern at 285 g unstrung, built around spin. It gives you the head size and string spacing of a full players' spin frame at a weight that stays manageable through a long match. This listing is the scarlet colourway.

Key Features

• 285 g unstrung at 98 sq in — a genuinely light frame in a proper players' head size, so racket-head speed comes easily.
• 16x19 open pattern — wider string spacing that lets the strings bite and snap back, which is where topspin comes from.
• ISOMETRIC™ frame — Yonex's squared head shape, evening out string lengths to widen the sweet spot.
• 2G-Namd™ Flex Force — Yonex's flex-force graphite through the throat and lower frame, letting the frame load and release quickly through the stroke.
• Aero Trench frame — a recessed groove in the frame profile that cuts drag through the swing.
• VDM (Vibration Dampening Mesh) — built into the layup to soften impact shock.
• Head-light balance — keeps the frame quick at the net and on defensive blocks.
• Free restring from YC Sports — our own service, not a Yonex offer. We will fit a string of your choice at no extra cost before it ships.

Performance Overview

The 98L is aimed at players who want to swing fast and hit with shape. The light frame and open pattern reward a full, accelerating swing — brush up the back of the ball and the string bed does the rest.

Because it is head-light, it does not feel unwieldy at the net despite the spin bias, and the lower static weight makes it a sensible choice for players stepping up from a lighter club frame who are not ready for 305 g.

Benefits

Lighter frames get you into position sooner and cost you less energy over three sets. If you have been struggling to generate spin with a stiffer, denser-patterned racket, the 98L's combination of low mass and open pattern is a straightforward fix — and the free restring lets you tune the tension to taste.
