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.

THERE’S NO OTHER RACQUET BRAND I WOULD EVER PLAY WITH. NAOMI OSAKA ” 6 WHERE COMFORT MEETS POWER THIS IS THE 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. “ FOR ME, POWER IS SO IMPORTANT TO MY GAME. IT’S GREAT TO GET A LITTLE EXTRA HELP FROM MY EZONE IN THE BIG MOMENTS. NAOMI OSAKA “ 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. 7 SEIZE THE POWER EZONE RACQUETS 8 w 2.5% MORE SPEED 7.9% MORE SHOCK ABSORPTION *Compared to the previous EZONE model 9 RACQUETS EZONE w NEW AERO-SHAPED FRAME FOR A PLUSH, COMFORTABLE FEEL By varying the outer angle of the aero-shaped frame, the middle and upper hoop are plush, while the lower hoop is stable ISOMETRICTM EXPANSION ENHANCED SWEET SPOT A new frame shape that is wider at the 3 and 9 o’clock positions creates the largest sweet spot in EZONE history EZONE RACQUETS 10 M40X HIGH POWER LOW POWER LOW FLEX HIGH FLEX M40X POWER WITH A MORE FLEXIBLE FRAME A strong, elastic graphite is added in the throat to improve frame stability and flex TORAYCA® M40X is a next-generation carbon fiber developed by Toray Industries, Inc.
