Funny how the commentators are saying how they'd expect a tennis player to have a big backswing. Like yeah they'd have that when playing tennis cause of the energy you'd need to generate for it, pickleball in comparison is practically ping pong for them
Jack Sock is improving rapidly and becoming more consistent. He's entertaining to watch and brings a lot to the sport. I expect Sock to be ranked top 5 within 6 months.
Funny how the more Jack Sock adopts the dad bod look, the better he gets at pickleball
Waiting for Nick Kyrgios to comment on the result....
My Lord the woman announcer is cringe.
who is the female commentator? she should stay away from commentary
LOL. how did they get the names completely wrong in the final score
This female announcer is terrible
Women bad
Hey look, a tennis pro with less experience and time in the sport beating someone who is a full time pickle nerd.
Guess Alshon had that karma coming making a ridiculous statement about pickle being harder than tennis. He might crawl to arcade pong and say that's harder on the hands and eyes 😂. Jack beat him so bad the first round, he felt bad and made it a close 2nd match
Alshon said something about whether Sock really "wanted it enough" to be a good pickleball player, pretty stupid of him.
You would think he would break the top 10 in a year
@@anthonytatu5932 too bad even if jack didn't want it enough, he's just naturally better because of his tennis background haha. Which defeats Alshon's entire point and argument.
When Alshon hit that tweener and then went right into the net on the next serve he was done. That's when you slow down and get it over the net. Brad Gilbert talks about it in Winning Ugly. How often players fault after a big play because of the energy and adrenaline.
when can they get ball boys? takes forever between points
I have always been a Sock fan. But he was a way better tennis doubles player than singles player,. As his career hit the latter half, his competitors exploited his weaker backhand. He could get away with that side in doubles. I put Jack in the top 10 doubles player of all time.
I love how he came for Christian at the end like, "this is what happens when you run your mouth on Twitter little boy" lol
what happened ? Sry im not American
Christian Alshon posted something online dissing Tennis and Jack Sock is a former tennis player.
Kaitlyn Christian Alshon just came up short
😂😂😂
Alshon looks like tennis player Denis Shapovolov. I don't think he could beat Shapo in a tennis match. Is Alshon still thinking about playing pro tennis?
everything is great but the original camera angle is better. I feel it is a bit to high
How do they even manage to show the correct score but with women’s names?
I mean… that’s definitely tennis volleys there from Sock…
The pretend sport for broken down tennis players
Great match! Way fewer unforced errors than past matches has propelled him to the finals! 👏
Mary won and will play in her first championship
I love Jack Sock, just here to see him beat Alshon ❤
It's funny how pro tennis players with little effort can become top pickle ball players but the reverse situation is not true. The best pickle ball player would probably be ranked like 50,000 among high school student players because pickleball is a fake sport lol
Sock is a doubles slam champ and an Olympics medalist. Not exactly a run of the mill former tennis player. Yet, he's got some losses in pickleball. You'd think he'd be mopping everyone, but he hasn't. He lost to Staksrud in the same tournament. Little effort, pfft..
While yes, tennis is harder than pickleball, (more running, harder hits, long racquet so you need better hand-eye coordination, etc) pickleball still requires (in my humble opinion) a certain skill set. But once tennis players get it down, they definitely dominate. Also,… the “fake sport” and “made up sport” arguments aren't very good because every single sport ever created is made up. Pickleball IS a sport, but more of a leisurely one. Which makes it more enjoyable to me!
How much money does winner get?
Surprised Jack sock is seeded 11 in singles. Would think he is 5 or lower.
Not too surprising, he only started the PPA tour in the second half of last year so he hasn't had as many opportunities to get points. On top of that, this year he has skipped some events or has not performed super well. In 2024 he did not participate or lost in the round of 32 once, lost in quarters once, lost in semis three times. For the most part, the guys above him have either participated in more events or have medaled.
He's #5 in this year's race even before this tourney, just wasn't playing a full schedule last year.
service let is reservice now?
Jack sock 🤣🤣🤣🤣
New Selkirk paddle, amped pro!
Sock looks pretty shape! Of course tennis is a much hard game to win at then picketball!😊
the poor production and lack of knowledge of the commentators are the reason why pickleball is not as popular as it should be. for most people pickleball is still way more enjoyable to play than to watch. considering how the sport has exploded and how accessible it has become, it doesnt make sense ppa is at 84k subscribers while tennis tv is at 1.5mil
Why doesn’t it make sense? Most people had never even heard of pickleball before the pandemic (or at all), especially outside the US. Modern tennis is 150 years old, professionally been around for 60 and is the 4th most popular sport in the world
@@kabob21 yea but tennis has had a difficult time attracting the young audience, partly because the next gen is still no match for the like of novak and rafa. Pickleball is drawing massive amount of young audience because it is easy and trendy
@kabob21 yes, yes and yes. Why in the world would a pickleball channel have more viewers than a tennis one
Awesome announcers!!
Jack Sock is fun to watch and all, but I wish the announcers would be a little more honest about the fact that he’s a multi-millionaire and this is just a hobby for him. For the majority of the other players, this is their job, their career.
Players like Jack Sock elevate the game, make it more competitive and drive players to improve. Regardless of his net worth, Jack is making the game of Pickleball better and bringing some attention that it might not get otherwise. I hope with time we get more players like him that make Pickleball bigger and better for everyone that loves the game.
Who cares whether it's a "hobby" or job??? High level play is high level play.
What does that say about the sport of Pickleball?
Why is it the announcers job to broadcast jack socks net worth? Alshon can take out a loan and invest in his own future and career just like any startup business
@@PicklePilotI thought this was a charity game show. Is it a real sport?!
Not that friendly, why?
Alshon stated that pickleball is way harder than tennis. Jack Sock knows otherwise lol
It started when Christian hit the ball in a corner after the point intentionally like the worst spot you could. Jack said "thanks man" after that it got pretty chippy. With players not liking calls. Game 2 was a really good game and gritty win for Jack.
@@QuyNguyen-zi1wvlol alshon is ridiculous for that
Wow the attitude! Jack is an unbelievable asset for Pickleball.
Alshon is a narcissist, see his earlier videos documenting his own rise and declaration that he was going to conquer pickleball
I’m here because Alshon became a thing on Twitter earlier this month and I needed to see what it was like when an ex tennis pro beat the world #4, after what Alshon had to say.
I’ve never watched too much of pickleball but I watched most of this.
I don’t understand how this is a legitimate money-earning sport. The commentators are going wild for points that showcase skills I too possess. And the entire match goes for 28 minutes?
I feel like I’m in some parallel universe…
If you too posses these skills, I suggest you play ppa events and make some easy money
different strokes for different folks. You don't have to be a hater.
I can watch a pickleball match in 28 minutes versus 4 hours for a tennis match. It's much more bite-sized and much less of a time commitment to watch pickleball.
Tennis is stupid enough, pickle ball is above and beyond stupid …..
who is the female announcer on this match?
I believe it is Michelle Esquivel
I don't know, but her comments are so cringe I can't watch the video because my palm is planted squarely on my face.
Who cares about the quality of the commentary my god. Just pay attention to the match. If you hate hearing a woman’s voice that much get your homies to whisper sweet nothings in your ear.
Federer would play pickleball if it wasn’t beneath his dignity.
