@Djoko_UTD You’ve been waiting 4 years to post this huh? 😭

Wow Retired Tennis player Jack sock beats the Pickleball No.1 comfortably… Another evidence why Tennis is the King of Racket sports..

@pickleball_jim Ezier said than done

Someone please explain to me how this can happen in a PPA QF. Freeman/McGuffin v Klinger/Johnson. Klinger/Johnson have been beaten once by a lesser team recently, Collin Johns/Len Yang. Johns/Yang used a very specific strategy. But, Freeman/McGuffin never used that strategy and lost 11-4, 11-4. When I say they didn’t use the strategy, I mean they didn’t use it AT ALL, not one single rally. The strategy? Hit everything CC to CJ. Stay away from JW’s BH. When someone shows a clearly proper and winning strategy, why doesn’t every other team copy it? You may not win with it, but losing 11-4, 11-4 and never trying it once? That I cannot explain.

@Matt_Manasse It was a win for pickleball totally But you think Genie will suddenly focus on doubles after 2+ years of not and even get good? 😂

Let’s talk Pickleball Slam. It was a complete WIN. Andre and James showed they can ball out and play. They both love it. ALW is an absolute beast and all time winner. Genie is all class and I guarantee you will focus more on doubles now. Nobody lost last night, the sport won.

@pickleball_jim Anotha W take from KLOSS

Just watched Pickleball Slam. Thoughts: (1) James Blake is pretty good, Agassi is meh, mostly just a banger. (2) the doubles played like a mixed game. Bouchard and Agassi were the weaker players. So a lot of Rside to Rside rallies. (3) ALW whined about not getting more balls. Well, again, it played like a mixed doubles match. She got about the right number of balls for the type of match it was. (4) in game 2 of dubs, ALW played some right side. Terrible decision. Made it easy to hit to Bouchard, just as would happen if a right handed woman played left side with a right handed partner in a mixed match. (5) it confirmed what we have LONG known about sports; men’s senior pros are better than the women pros. True in every sport, nothing learned here.

@pickleball_jim He’s done with singles. Only reason he played this event is cause ALW isn’t here to do mixed doubles.

Is it time for Ben Johns to hang it up in singles? I had predicted last December that 2026 would be his last year of singles. Seeing him in Sacramento, I think this might have been his last singles event. The game has changed to more of a baseline game, and that is not a fit for him. Now he loses to JW in an old school style match. Ben is no longer a top 10 singles player, and may well not even be a top 20 singles player. Does he really want to play singles events as just another guy? As to #18 seed? I don’t think so. He’s the best doubles player. Stick to that.

You know a product is bad when no one except those who are paid are talking about it 😂

Most coaching in pickleball is bad and it’s hurting more players than helps

@AshAshPB Ab is as fake as they come

I hate hearing RR and AB aren’t close anymore since the breakup. Switching PB partners shouldn’t ruin friendships. Nobody plays with one person forever. It’s good to switch up playing with different people. It’s a business decision not a personal one.

@NmlPickleball A large issue is that many of these companies, even the established ones, don't make their paddles from scratch to finish. They use molds are go with what the factory tells them to do. As is such in many of these instances.

It is notable that the Friday guys said they would “never willingly infringe on anyone’s trademark, patent or anything like that” in their YouTube response posted earlier today youtu.be/kFNd0ZkQNRU?si…

@CamilaZilveti Is Joola suing you?

Excited to have Austin and Lulu on the Eleven Zero Pro Team 😤🤩✍️

Who are the biggest frauds in pickleball? Like players or workers?

@NmlPickleball @JimKlossKat is right here

This is a mischaracterization based on top end results. There were plenty of US dubs teams that were pushed or lost to non-US teams in earlier rounds. The top end non-US teams are not competitive yet with the very best, but they are right there with a lot of the pros

@QueenPickle13 Ball was out. People want something to blame

This guy is being called out more than any other pro pickleball player ever has. That’s wild. I only saw game three and I understand it was probably in but where is this energy for the players we see do this in a regular basis? I’m not just talking about Alhouni either 👀.

That’s a big smile for you Adam! Who’s gotchu smiling like that?

That’s a big smile for you Adam! Who’s gotchu smiling like that?

@K_dot____ @NicoTheLefty 💯

@NicoTheLefty Jw respectfully could use a better partner imo

CJ and JW just need to learn how to win. They have all the tools but can’t close

@MaggieMaeRem Engagement rate, far better metric than quantity

Something padel’s pro tour is doing better than pickleballs: social media Premier Padel is having a tournament in Miami this weekend and yesterday alone they posted 40 IG reels and pictures PPA was only at 27 Definitely a reason premier padel has 1.7M followers vs 225K for PPA

Did Anna Bright steal Viv Glozman vlog style?? 🤔

@AshAshPB From the debts they owe and the lawsuits against them, I hope you can figure this out

So, does Proton have no money?

@AshAshPB Why is this interesting? It has been well known that proton was out of Flames ownership for some time.

Interesting.
