How it plays
0–100 editorial ratings compiled by Tennistory from specs and published reviews, not lab measurements.
Feel
A thin, low-powered beam — you can flatten the ball out, but you need racket head speed.
Background
The 2021 VCORE PRO; the line was later renamed Percept. The green-to-purple fade is this generation's signature.
Successor: Yonex PERCEPT 97
