Sumit Nagal’s Tennis Racquet
Sumit Nagal’s tennis racquet is a Yonex VCORE 100, but not the most recent 2023 version (click for our review). Based on some pics, it looks like he is using the VCORE 100 from 2018 (with the red cosmetic), this one is not extremely different from the current version, but they have changed the mold of the frame over the years.
Nagal strings his racquets with what looks like a polyester hybrid. A guess is that it is Solinco Hyper-G in the mains and a round black poly in the crosses (maybe Yonex Poly Tour Strike).
