Yonex MUSE 98 (2026)
Intermediate to advanced
The Yonex MUSE 98 (2026) is a 98 in² tennis racket weighing 305 g (10.8 oz) unstrung, with a 16x18 string pattern. It is built for topspin: the frame helps you brush up the ball, which drops earlier in the court. That open pattern lets the strings bite into the ball more.
It is aimed at intermediate to advanced players (roughly UTR 6–8).
