Yonex VCore Pro 97L 290g Tennis Racquet

The Yonex VCore Pro 97L 290g tennis racquet packs the control, spin and speed of the VCore Pro tennis family into a more manoeuvrable design than the heavier models. This makes it ideal for intermediate to advanced players seeking to climb the ranks with an easy-to-swing stick.

Upon contact, the tennis racquet bends more freely thanks to modifications in the shaft geometry. You get more satisfying pop from the beam, being thicker than the previous model without sacrificing the feedback and feel it was known for.

2G-NAMD (Flex Force) takes the graphite construction to the next level, boosting the snapback of the frame. For extra comfort, it’s infused with a soft polymer in the form of Flex Fuse.

The Isometric square head shape minimises the unusable areas of a standard round frame and creates a larger sweet spot for a forgiving feel on off-centre strikes.

Yonex have transferred over the Vibration Dampening Mesh of eariler evolutions for a vibration-reducing feel at the handle. This ensures a cleaner, more comfortable hitting sensation.

Whatever the pace, the VCore Pro 97L puts surgical precision and an enhanced feel in your hands. Whippy and fast handling mean you can dive for challenging shots on the fly, dominate from the baseline and master service returns.

It’s your confidence-inspiring tennis racquet that provides control in a lightweight package.

Technologies
Isometric Head Shape: Increases the sweet spot by enlarging the cross-section of strings (where vertical and horizontal strings meet). This translates to a more forgiving response on off-centre shots and according to Yonex, a 7% increase in the effective hitting area of the tennis racquet – improving control without compromise to power.

Lock Booster System: New grommet system strategically positions more holes at the upper end of the frame and features specialised grooves to minimise unwanted shifting of the strings - 'locking' them in place on ball contact. This maximises energy transfer for unrivalled spin.

NAMD Graphite: Outplay your opponent and load up on aggressive spin with the swift snapback, flex properties and resilience of NAMD graphite. It ensures improved shaft torque, elevating the spin and power for total court-domination and heavy drives.

Vibration Dampening Mesh (VDM): Woven into the grip, the stretchy mesh envelops the graphite to elevate your comfort and performance. According to Yonex, VDM filters vibrations by 30% for decreased arm fatigue, a cleaner and crisper feel and refined control.
