It's the magazine's fault.
They probably had the magazine pretty much ready a while back, but still could have just updated the photo.

You're probably right. Yonex did have an ad in there showing her with the new Vforce.

Pictures of her were when she was younger. They mentioned Yonex in the article. Babolat must buy more ad space than Yonex, otherwise the picture would have been replaced.

Caroline won Dubai.
It seems the Yonex V-Core 100 gave her an extra gear, and it's only been 3 months.
Interesting thing is, I feel she will never change rackets again, like most players that sign with Yonex.
I guess Yonex must be a great company to deal with players.
Babolat must be really hurt.

I ordered my 98D, 100S and an EZONE 100 demo to try out.

Im trying not to buy rackets, because I keep all of them, but I am interested in some: Yonex RQiS 1 Tour( I never forget this racket), V-Con X18(great for customizing), V-Core 95D and the EZONE Light(great for customizing).

Yeah, I keep going back to my RQiS 1 Tour even though I've "switched" to the RDiS 200.

I just like the nimbleness of the 95 head size. The 98 (RDiS 200) doesn't feel as maneuverable, but I volley a tad bit better with it because of the extra 3 sq inches.

I haven't ordered the V-Core 95D, but I want to. I got mine from a competitor who let me put in my order now; so I got the top 3 I'd most likely switch to. I might hit up TW for the 95D and UD-Ti80 Lite.

Buckethead, which racket is supposed to be more powerful ? Yonex Ezone 107 or Vcore 100 Wozniaki ??? TW say it is Ezone 107 but i am not so sure because Vcore 100 is alot more stiffer, and stiffer rackets generate more power.
and where do you think Prince EXO3 RED 2011 fit in there ? i hit with this frame yesterday and i thought it was slightly more powerful than Ezone 107 even. but weird thing is Ezone 107 seem more powerful on serving..

I assume the EZONE 107. But you can make the V-Core 100S as powerful as the E107, but probably it'll not play like the E107.
V-Core 100 isn't a lot stiffer than the EZONE, but the EZONE is bigger with a bigger sweet spot, so the power is on the sweet spot.
EXO3 Red would probably fit in between, but closer to 107, but i doubt it plays close to either one. Prince makes rackets with no feel and cheap materials, pretty much hollow crappy rackets.
Have you tried the SFIT 3, look at that one as well. I think EZONE 100 was great racket for who looks for power and really stable. The EZONE line I can already think is the best line for that tweener market. I can't see people taking any racket over those.

RQiS 1 tour was really, really nice with the exception of the hoop being thick.
But that was probably what brought that racket that feel and the paint job it is so beautiful.
URD Ti 80 Version is another racket with great feel, but I still like my RDS mids and the R-22 as my main rackets. The consumption is killing me now, because I am almost buying a few rackets of a couple lines. We'll see.

Hi. I just saw the game, repetition obviously. Good, powerful strokes. Do you think she customizes her racket. Why and how?

Do you think she hits the ball more in the center or brushes the ball going under the ball looking to generate topspin?

Wouldnt the VCore 98 suit her control game better than the 100?

Good mental toughness for CWoz.

Did you demo it first? If so, what were your impressions?

How does the 100 compare to VCore 98 if you demoed the 98?

With all the respect, I am not her, I don't know what she likes or doesn't, but obviously the V-Core suits her game better, since she plays with it.
You can go with the V-core 100S, you'll be satisfied.
