War going on between tennis and pickle ball players. Tennis courts converting to pickle ball courts pissing off the tennis players in So Cal.

Costa rica has really adopted padel in the last couple of years. Exact opposite here, cant find a pickleball court. Truth be told I don't know which sport is better as Ive never played pcikle I was just busted chops. I do know I like padel though. I've been playing for a couple of months now (1st tennis style sport I've ever played). The guys i play with are curretnly better than me as they have been playing for 12-18 months and have a tennis background but I should be up to speed in the next couple of months.

Tennis industry really screwed up.

They should have introduced more Clay Courts. Much better experience for the aging USA adult than playing on hard surfaces.

Quality older guys can compete against younger pickleballers.

Pickleball is a blend of power and speed with large doses of touch and finesse mixed in.

Birdie, how does your singles game compare to your doubles play?

my dupr rating is lower than it should be in doubles because i dont play with kids instead of seniors, and i have played with players who dont want to stack. i play 98 pct doubles 2pct singles. there is more randomness in doubles, where as singles is like tennis where you can pretty much know if your going to win or not pre match. im about 4.5 in doubles and probably 4.3 in singles. if i were to play fellow 57 yr olds instead of 27 yr olds those ratings would jump up 0.4 or so each, but im stubborn and dont play seniors
