Yonex took their first steps into the tennis industry with the production of the first aluminum tennis racket, the T-7000. Continuing with their initial success, they went on to produce rackets incorporated with the OPS shaft, isometric head, and many innovative technologies to better equip their sponsored players as well as the fans of Yonex. Some of the current players sponsored by Yonex include: Stan Wawrinka, Angelique Kerber, Nick Kyrgios, Michael Mmoh, Naomi Osaka, and CoCo Vandeweghe.
