Sock/Shick vs Teoni/Duong at the Hyundai Masters

"step forward to explode back"? what? no...high level tennis players after the split step will drop step, not take a step forward. Maybe when you get thrown off expecting a passing shot and they hit a top spin lob you take a step forward but generally, lob goes up, unit turn w/ a drop step. I'll throw up a top spin lob into the ad corner on a RH player if i get caught in the transition zone and I have good ball to hit. Most non tennis players have terrible overheads, hitting it frying pan style.

They need some slow mo line cams 😅 refs are blind

Great match. I was rooting for the "unorthodox" underdogs to win.

Now if only @ppatour could hire a sound guy to balance the average SOUND POWER to MATCH that of normalcy/the ads so that I don't have to run in every 15m to hit mute over the 20th Vulcan ball ad I've seen that is like 20dB LOUDER than the average of the match, this would be a real pleasure to watch.

They are all so good. Sock is kind of a jerk though and he made a majority of errors. But some of his shots are ridiculously hard to defend. I think he was wrong about the ball he said hit Doung.

nice crowd

Love the energy of Sock/Shick - play hard, try different strategies and great athletes!

pickleball is still too new to have dogma like "structured play", yeah it works for the Johns, but we've only seen a sliver of the talent and possible play patterns.

"IRON DONG" Quang is the beginning of the new era in pickleball- only 17 years old and just wiped the floor with Ben. Many Of these kids are coming in late 2024 and 2025!!! Gonna be amazing when Ben can't even reach the quarters anymore.

Ugh! Fleming is back!!!! 🤬

Can you guys for once show the handshake at the net?

Easy with the hyperboles every time Sock hits a winner!

Two bad calls caused the result of game one.

1506, ball was in. If theat close, casll goes to hitting side. Sock & Shick are becoming the Golden Boys - money celebrities - so, calls will go in their favor. Cynical, but that's how I see it.

Didn’t graze him with a ball

Can someone tell the announcers to say "Young" not "Du-ong"?

It’s amazing the amount of unforced errors

Look at all those empty seats!

The refs are sad. The closest ref is asking for the opinion of the other ref on the OTHER side of the court if she saw the ball. Made me chuckle.

Adam Stone great commentary!!!

Gosh, Teoni and Duong could have won the first game if there had been a camera for video review for that controversial call. What's the point to even allow the players to challenge if there was no camera set up for the video review? That one point was really a game changer, literally. They got to have camera set up for every single game if there's prize money involved. PERIOD.

I wish Teoni got the win, i really like his game.

TIN DUONG is the man!!!

Adam Stone, ladies and gentlemen, the best commentator in the business

Duong needs to soften up

PPA is such a joke ... "no video available "

There is so much happening in each rally. Where's the slow motion replays?!

Wow, really looking forward to seeing more of this doubles pair Sock/Shick.... great game

This is really hard to watch. These guys have a lot to learn 🙈😵‍💫Total chaos😂

Not a fan of the new serve rules.

Sock hit a pretty great ATP on match point in the first game.

I used to think either James Ignatowich or Thomas Wilson had the hardest overhead but now I'm thinking it may be Jack?

“Did you see that?”
Every ref: “I did not”

Tomorrow is your last match…

wow the commentating. will put on mute and keep watching the match.

sock has turned into an actual pickleball player

“Colin shick the doctor on hold” please stop this

Great match

Duong hasn't gotten better in the last year, feel sorry for Pesa, he can't get a break with teammates

Newman/Wilson next up...gonna be a good one
