THIS IS YONEX Our first wooden racquet launched in 1957. A lot has changed. But our spirit hasn’t. After all, mastery is the pursuit. Practice is the joy. Refining. Crafting. Innovating. Accelerating. Warming up, cooling down. Changing this, tightening that. It’s a dance. A compulsion. A legacy. A pulse. Because a gram here, a millimeter there can be the difference between falling one step behind and rising, reaching, racing to the top. At the intersection of craft and technology, precision and strength, that’s where you will find us. Forever pushing the edge, crafting the dream and chasing the spirit of sport.
YONEX. FAR BEYOND ORDINARY.

7% LARGER SWEET SPOT Developed over 30 years ago, the ISOMETRIC™ design increases the sweet spot by 7%*. Compared to a conventional round frame, a square-shaped ISOMETRIC™ racquet generates a larger sweet spot by optimizing the intersection of the main and cross strings. ISOMETRIC™ delivers greater control without sacrificing power.

WHERE COMFORT MEETS POWER THIS IS EZONE The EZONE delivers unmatched power and comfort for beginners to the world’s best athletes like Naomi Osaka (JPN), Nick Kyrgios (AUS), and Belinda Bencic (SUI), who have trusted the EZONE series for the entirety of their professional careers. Osaka took the tennis world by storm after winning back-to-back major titles and ascended to World No. 1 in 2019. The Japanese superstar has relied on her powerful serve - clocking in as high as 125 mph - and groundstrokes to punish opponents from the very first point.
" F or m e , power is so i m portant to m y ga m e . I t ’ s great to get a little extra help fro m N AOMI OSAKA m y E Z O N E in the big m o m ents ." Also focusing on comfort, the EZONE has M40X* - a high strength, high elastic graphite in the throat - to improve frame stability and flex and Vibration Dampening Mesh (VDM) in the handle to filter unwanted vibrations. “It’s such a comfortable racquet,” says Kyrgios. “Because of the large sweet spot, I can go big at any time everywhere on the court.” The 6th-generation EZONE features the largest sweet spot in the series’ history. By widening the racquet at the 3 and 9 o’clock positions and varying the angles of the aero-shaped frame, there is a plush, more comfortable feel at impact, even on off-centered shots.
*TORAYCA® M40X is a next-generation carbon fiber developed by Toray Industries, Inc.

STAN WAWRINKA (SUI)
CONTROL THE COURT THIS IS VCORE PRO Three-time Grand Slam Champion Stan Wawrinka (SUI) and up-and-coming players like Dayana Yastremska (UKR) and Frances Tiafoe (USA) depend on the VCORE PRO to provide added control so they can overpower with heavy drives. Designed with ball-crushing technology, the VCORE PRO is engineered with Namd* graphite - a revolutionary graphite that maintains its flex during fast swing speeds - for superior spin. Namd, combined with an improved throat design, provides optimum torque and higher spin potential for hard-hitters.
"mANY OF mY mATCHES COmE DOWN TO A FEW POINTS HERE AND THERE, SO BEING ABLE TO HIT PRECISE SHOTS S TAN IS CRITICAL FOR mY GAmE."
WAWRINKA
The new VCORE PRO was updated with Vibration Dampening Mesh (VDM), a new stretchy, mesh material intertwined within the grip, to filter unwanted vibrations and provide added touch and precision.
*Namd is technology developed by Nitta Co., Ltd. to uniformly disperse carbon nanotubes in carbon fiber composites.

DENIS SHAPOVALOV (CAN)
STRIKE WITH SPIN THIS IS VCORE Designed to produce the most spin in YONEX Tennis history, the VCORE features aerodynamic technology that gives players access to maximum spin potential. New Aero Fin technology above the throat and the Aero Trench design at the top of the frame allow the VCORE to be a fast, maneuverable frame.
"I HAVE FULL TRUST IN MY VCORE AND CAN HIT DENIS SHAPOVALOV A N Y S H O T I W A N T. " Further amplifying spin, Liner Tech is added to the outer areas of the racquet to allow more string movement on off-centered shots, while Namd* graphite incorporated in the throat allows players to grip the ball better and produce aggressive, attacking spin. “I run down a lot of balls so I’m not always in the best position,” says Denis Shapovalov. “But, I am able to go from defense to offense in one swing with my VCORE. It’s a very complete racquet.” Shapovalov, known for his electrifying style, completed his 2019 season on a high note. The young Canadian qualified for the Next Gen ATP Finals for the third-straight time - the only player to do so since the event was created in 2017 and reached a career-high ranking of 15.

GRIPS
GRIPS FOR YOUR GAME The connection between your hand and the racquet is often overlooked but can make the biggest difference. YONEX designs a range of overgrips to fit every player’s preference. From Super Grap - YONEX’s most popular overgrip that will have been sold enough to wrap around the world five times by the summer of 2020 - to Dry Grap, which wicks away moisture and provides a dry feeling even in humid conditions, every YONEX overgrip is designed to make that connection between your hand and your racquet one you can trust.
