Take control of your game with the PERCEPT 97, designed for intermediate and advanced players. With innovative technology for superior string snapback, it offers intense spin, exceptional control, flexibility, and responsive feel.

Introducing the 8th generation of the VCORE 100! With this 2026 update, Yonex makes incremental changes to the beam while keeping the plush feel, spin-friendly targeting, and easy power for which this model is known. Like other members of the VCORE family, this racquet's Isometric head shape has been modified with a wider contact zone at 10 and 2 o'clock, resulting in a larger spin window along with easier power and a higher launch angle (think easy depth). Boasting a swingweight in the mid 320s, the VCORE 100 delivers a stable ride, while still offering enough all-court speed to attack the net and close out points. For 2026, Yonex redesigns the beam, giving it a faster, more aerodynamic shape while also thickening it in key locations for added stability and power. Additional 2026 updates include widening the grommet holes for increased string movement and greater snapback, as well as lengthening the inner trench at the tip for added flex and pocketing. As with the previous generation, this racquet integrates a thin, elastic film (Servo Filter) within the layers of 2 NAMD FlexForce Graphite, allowing the racquet to flex optimally while also absorbing unwanted vibrations. This racquet also comes with a Vibration Dampening Mesh, which is integrated into the handle to further enhance dampening.

Meet the VCORE 100L 8th Gen! With this racquet, Yonex brings spin-friendly targeting, plush comfort, and controllable power to the rising intermediate player. Like other members of the VCORE family, this racquet's Isometric head shape has been modified with an even wider contact zone at 10 and 2 o'clock, resulting in a larger spin window and easier access to power. On court, this translates into deeper, more penetrating shots. Thanks to its sub-315 swingweight, the VCORE 100L 2026 glides through impact with impressive speed, making it easier to whip up spin or hit effective shots on the run. The fast feel is also an asset at net where this stick comes around fast when the pressure is on.
