    Following Waters and Johns walking onto the court to take a bow, the face of Devilliers sitting at the end of the game was priceless, as he gave his leg a hard punch.

    This match is from a month ago? It would be nice if the PPA would include the Date of Match, Facility and Location in the description...Just sayin.

    When is professional pickleball going have an official watching each line for out balls like in tennis. It's time to take this game into the 20th century.

    Why was it a let/reserve at 8:27? I thought net balls were playable after 2021.

      @Canucklug Год назад +2

      PPA still calls a reserve if it landed in, I think the official rules for pickleball call it a good serve but PPA still uses the reserve rule

      yes professional PB does it different and not sure why - let serves are allowed a re-do

    Those line calls in 3rd game were quite iffy. Agreed we really need a line judge

    31:05 it was the ref who called it out, waters challenged his call 31:12 but the video review appeared inconclusive .. was the ref correct in overruling his own call then? 34:16 😢😮

      Got to stop comparing pickle ball players to legends in tennis. It’s not even close to how much more physical tennis is.

    Could anyone explain to me rational for devilliers team for having male player on play on the the right? vs. John/waters having John play on the left allowing him to cover more of court with right forehand.

      Announcers said they were trying to have DeVelliers opposite Johns so Johns couldn't pound on Irvine. They did switch it up last game.

    Judging by the thin crowd, pickleball has long way to go. It is definitely not a money maker for sponsors yet.
