Yonex VCORE 2023

The 2023 VCORE 100 is designed to be more powerful and forgiving than the 95 and 98 versions. It features a wider hitting area in the upper hoop, which helps with stability and makes it easier to generate depth on your shots.

This racquet is primarily engineered for intermediate to advanced players who have developed a consistent swing. While the 100-square-inch head size offers some forgiveness, its focus on spin generation and maneuverability is best utilized by those who can already control their pace.

SIF Grommets are designed to reduce friction between the strings and the grommet holes. This allows for greater string movement, which increases snapback and helps you generate more spin on the ball.

Yes, it is specifically built for a spin-oriented game. The combination of the 16x19 string pattern, the specialized grommet technology, and the frame geometry is designed to maximize ball rotation and help you dictate play from the baseline.

The manufacturer recommends a tension range of 40 to 55 lbs. We suggest starting in the middle of this range to find the right balance between power and control for your specific playing style.

The 2-NAMD FlexForce Graphite allows the frame to flex optimally upon impact. This provides better pocketing—where the ball feels like it sinks into the string bed—resulting in a more comfortable and responsive feel compared to stiffer frames.
