I think one of the players thought this was a singles match.
Fr, she was a ball hog, and she let her teammate down fr
Exactly! Straight-up hogging the real estate!😂
Exactly
OK. I don't know pickle ball(!), but I've played racket sports with a partner once or twice, and I'm gonna say, ZERO CHANCE that wasn't fully discussed and fully agreed to by both parties. My question is WHY exactly?... Is she so much better? She was great, but the other woman looked good too -- and to my eye, she didn't "let her partner down" as much as their *strategy* of having her play toward the middle of the court failed them when their opponents finally played one wide enough to her forehand on the prior shot to set up that last winning shot into her feet. Good point anyway! 😁
@@mweymar A bit of hyperbole, for sure! Those of us who've played doubles in tennis, squash, or racketball know that, at times, you can "buffalo" your partner because you feel you're in a groove, or your over aggressive. I've done it many times! It can be difficult to get the proper balance of letting your partner take a ball or two, or three, and you knowing when to take a shot. Just calling out "Your shot!" or "Ball's yours!" isn't always effective, especially when you have fractions-of-a-second to respond in a game like pickle-ball. There definitely are those, though, whose idea of teamwork is an idea that is quite foreign. Their idea of doubles is: "I'll let you have a shot if I feel like it!"
Satisfying that the girl hogging the court is the one who couldn’t return the last shot 👏🏽
75 likes and 0 comments lemme fix that
It's almost like she ran out of energy
Yep. Had she been holding down her side…
Yep, she is the dominant of that team and the best female player but there were at least two shots she should have left to her partner’s forehand.
Well, her partner kind of set her up. She had to block a ball going down the line, and then that popped it up and was hard to block again.
Pickle ball: even the greatest points make you sleepy.
I fell asleep here, twice
😂
I love this point, and I still love this comment! Hilarious. Mad respect to these women who can play such a great point, but ... hey, it's not for everyone!
I love playing pickleball with my friends, but wow I just watch these clips and think about how I can be watching tennis instead.
This is the only sport where you can’t tell a pro from an amateur.
blondie in the pink tennies drove her teammate off the court . . . if you're gonna play *_THAT_* far into your own partner's part of the court you better effin put that point away
She's the greatest female pickle ball player of all time id let her take the shots too
@@koen6162 yeah, I get how some people have a talent for something and can compete at a really high level . . . by themselves . . . it's the great players who know how to work within the structure of a *_TEAM_* who through leadership, charisma, encouragement, performance . . . whatever you call it, where by just *_being_* there, the ability of the entire team is elevated and no one has to lessen their individual ability for the team to succeed . . . it a rare thing to experience being a part of something where the whole is *_so_* much greater than the sum of its parts . . . I'll *_ALWAYS_* value the efforts of a team over that of an individual no matter great the individual achievement . . . there is just so much *_more_* to gain as a group and no one will every convince me otherwise
To understand successful "poaching" (shifting into your partner's area) one should probably have played tennis, first. Only poach if you know you can hit a winner. Otherwise, you're hogging play from your partner.
@@alkh3myst had more than my fair share of tennis partners who'd poach and not win the point outright and have the other team drive the ball up the line on my partner's side of the court . . . *_VERY_* frustrating . . . but that's not to say that I have never been guilty of doing the same . . . but *_NEVER_* to the same extent exhibited by this pickle ball player . . . and I don't care *_WHAT_* her player ranking is
@@miraclemax08 Yeah, that's ego-driven.
The girl that was serving was not letting her partner play, and it cost them the point/game.
Yes , wanted to be the hero
The “girl that was serving” comment shows you have no idea what is happening here.
@@steveraymond6169 What do u mean by that?
She is the best female pickleball player in the world. I'd let her take the shots too. 😂
The server was a ball hogger. Poor team player. When she lost she blames her partner
this is so sick because the broadcast showed it from the other side -- fun to relive it from a new angle
You have waaaayyyy too much time 😂
Everyone. Who's hating on this sport never actually played it. It's so much fun. And I've been playing tennis for 20 years.
Played it several times and still don’t entertain my friends, but it’s boring. This video is boring. Glad you like it and others get fun out of it. But due to me being bored and behind a computer, I will hate on it
Can't you run 10 steps any more?
Don’t hate it. It’s probably fun, but not so much as a spectator sport.
@@RobbieMcCormick honestly most sports are not fun to watch as spectator unless you play it and knows what is going on. I think golf and baseball are mind numbingly boring but I don't play it so I don't enjoy it. However many people enjoy since those guys get paid millions
@@michaelmanning7954 What kind of loser keeps watching something they hate? Seriously, get some will power!
If this is the most viral moment in pickleball history then consider me dead.
Tennis points are soooo much better
Nearing Halloween everyone dresses as zombies moAns 🎃
They don't run... not very athletic.. and drops shots are not allowed?
Don't talk. You're dead
I used to have this opinion coming from badminton and squash after getting a ACL injury. Pickleball is easy to learn but bloody difficult to control n master. That sequence of shots is indeed incredible.
PICKLE BALL: when you fail in playing TENNIS and PING PONG.
Mcosmskdmdoskdkkd
😂 That’s a good point 👏
I'd rather watch badminton.
That doesn't mean it's not fun. I play both tennis and pickle ball and enjoy both the same
AMEN!!!!!!
Some sports don’t need to be played professionally.
I haven’t played this myself but it looks like there’s a huuge skill cap, should definitely be kept recreational
@@supreme_zeeyus no there isnt
I play tennis, and pickle ball was completely different than what I originally thought. The ball and the racket don’t allow for any spin. So for old people who just tap balls this is perfect. It’s a recreational sport that really shouldn’t be played this hard cuz at this rate just go do badminton, ping pong, or tennis
@@supreme_zeeyus What? The skill gap is tiny in pickleball
@@chasepetersen9978 OP said skill CAP not skill gap- aka you can only get better to a certain point then it’s just boring and it’s impossible to put the ball away
Just hearing about this sport for the first time, still more than what I can do.
They are professional. 😊
Watched it 3 times and still had me at the edge of my seat 🤣🤣🤣
Pickleball is America's fastest-growing sport and we like it #Pickleball
Because its easy
@@criminalitycollectiveand? Why does a sport have to be hard. There’s a reason soccer is the most popular sport in the world.
@@Spritecranberry12345 id argue that soccer is actually hard. I’ve got a lot of friends who are ex-D1 tennis player who are making bank on this easy sport.
This went viral from everyone watching it, falling asleep and it replaying 185 times. Only 200 people have seen this video.
😂😂😂
Eighteen thousand likes so far loser.
No, there are always plenty of butt hurt players of other sports who watch Pickleball clips only so that they could whine about how terrible it is! You guys are always the comic relief!
I ain’t gone lie this ish tough! lol 💪🏾
This is way more fun to watch than tennis, imo
No...
no
yes
Nice rally !🙂👍
For every salty tennis player comment, another tennis court gets converted into two more pickleball courts
Amen 🙏
Yeah why can't pickleball players get their own courts instead you're stealing tennis courts that were originally built for tennis. Bunch of thieves. Pickleballs are annoying sport it's for those who can't run or play tennis.
Incredible volley 🎾
Quite the dynamic play for sure, great volley with excellent precision!
I see why they made this sport for old people. Can we keep it that way
Nah. It’s too much fun. I’ll definitely be playing this till I’m an old man tho
And have “walker” and “wheelchair” divisions.
I mean who said you had to play or go out of your way to comment on something that’s irrelevant to you? 🤡
@@PlayGamesRideBikes I started playing this a couple weeks ago and I love it. My comment is no longer relevent lol
@@thechristianinitiative1445 I think that’s the issue. People that bash it just simply haven’t played it to realize how fun it is. It doesn’t have to be taken to the level of the video, it’s just fun 🤷🏼♂️
That girl was on fire!
Incredible that they never mis-hit, both teams!
56 hits from start to finish! wow!
You actually took time to count a sport you seem to despise? Wow.
@@jimandlizhudson2501 Wait what? How did you get that? My comment was based on the the amazement of their talents. Did you reply to the wrong person?
Apologies.... I misread the intent of your comment. I guess I was getting tired of all the snippy comments from others.
@@JimHudson-kx6vl Roger that! TC
Nearside right needs to stay in her own lane!
I like the camera , u can feel the real height of the ball at this side !
Wow, amazing 😊
Team work is a big part of any game. The girl that served had a hard time learning that. Because of her they lost.
This feels like watching Wii Tennis...
Lmao 😂
Wow! 56 shots!👍👏
just needed 6 shots, no joke
That one fan be like:
oh my god.
Twenty seconds later:
Oh mY GaWd!
Insane. Back left just stood and watched
A sharp angle would’ve ended this a lot sooner 😂
Right? It felt like the teams are playing each other, not against…
Hitting your opponent off the court. A basic tennis tactic none of these "world class" pickleball players seem to have heard of.
@@alkh3mysteasier said than done buddy
Why was A. Waters poaching balls her partner had the forehand?
Why not? I think the idea of forehand before backhand is not always true, you don't need all your power to place or hit the ball cause it's a small court so of she had a good position why not playing the ball?
I have never seen a player poach with their backhand. Forehand you see all the time but poaching using backhand?
@@johncraig7548 well, that's the main idea of poaching, an unexpected move, right? Everybody is expecting the forehand to take most of the shots around the middle
That wore her out😢
Agreed... I would say... stay on your side or I'm walking off this court. Try me...
0:40 Starting here, the woman in white on the right is attacked hard and low to alternate sides of her body four times in rapid succession.
That two-hander from the center down the midline by ALW was heavy and perfectly placed. 13 frames at 30 fps between the attacking paddle contact and the defensive paddle contact, about 450 ms. It's insanely hard to generate a soft touch on such a heavy ball so close to the ground away from the feet with next to no time at all. She doesn't make a perfect shot-it's amazing she made any shot at all, much less a good one-so three more heavy attacks follow to alternating hips, not an easy hand position to cope with. Textbook composure on the attack.
They only end up losing the rally because they bump paddles in the middle and generate a mis-hit to the sideline. If you don't watch this in slow motion, you'll probably miss that moment.
I imagine they are keeping Jansen wide on the forehand to exploit her long arm from the Erne position. The opponents never make the mistake of testing that.
The white team ended that rally knowing they weren't going to win the match having to play defense to that standard of perfection.
Based on comments in this thread, the central exchange happened faster than most viewers have managed to process from a helpful camera angle, without having to move at all. It's a funny sport that way. Slow enough to fool people into thinking they can keep up, but actually faster than they can mentally process. Ping pong doesn't have this problem, because only a idiot thinks they are really keeping up. Everything sensational in ping pong really has to go back to the slo-mo cam after the dust settles.
Fantastic comment and response.
Worth watching for sure
Imagine meeting a woman at a bar, she asks what you do for a living. Your response is PICKLEBALL referee.
Is that worse or better than pickleball player?
@@floydpinkerton7954 definitely worse ahha
Or even worse, a pickleball judge
Or pickleball “coach”.
I’d have no problem saying that to a girl lol
Today, for whatever reason, I found out about this sport for the first time. I used to play table tennis in a club for years. Unfortunately I have osteoarthritis in both knees. Otherwise I would immediately look for a club where I could play
That was amazing! I’ve never seen this game- damn, shame on me & my reality ignorance…
This is freakin awesome!!!!!
Great athleticism ladies!!!!!!
Watch literally any tennis or ping pong or really any other sport and you’ll see actual athleticism
Great snark!
I feel sorry for the right hand girl's husband. She probably hogs up the bed as well. 😂😂😂
According to some other comment she’s only 16 so probably doesn’t have a husband
She was only 15 at the time, so no husband
The right hand side girl from our side.. She unnecessarily took shots which her partner should have taken... Her partner would have able to hit them harder and with more angle and hence win the point.... That's what I felt
They lost it because the one on the right took over like it was a single match 😂😂😂
Wow. Unreal exchange.
The tennis reject sport 😂
凄いなこれ！
That was intense!
This is absolutely amazing. I just started playing and they are building a really nice pickeball facility here in Cleveland TN. Love these uploads! ❤
Go watch some actual tennis instead of this knock off game
Why the hate? Why do tennis fans feel so threatened and have to bash another sport?
Can't I watch and enjoy both?
@@seanwilson512 of course you can enjoy both but in my opinion this game is nothing special and I don’t get why people like it so much
@@seanwilson512not even a tennis fan but this is just silly lol, its glorified ping pong on a larger scale just not large enough to call be tennis, the only difference is the ball weight, a pickleball weights 10x more than a ping pong ball and you can fit 10 tables in one of these courts, funny coincidence
Tennis is boring. Either the serve is an ace or there is one return and the rally is over. Why do tennis snobs constantly have to comment on Pickleball videos and denigrate the game? Why are you so threatened by a fast growing sport and people getting exercise and having fun? If you don’t like it, just pass it by.
Why are you watching it?
Pickle is not a sport. It’s a lovely game for people who can’t make it in tennis.
its large ping pong, its pretty similar but not bad sport, big ping pong is actually kind of fun, tbh Id rather play this than tennis
If you dislike it so much, why are you watching it? Butthurt because it’s becoming more popular? Well cry harder
I bet your unfit ass would pull a muscle just trying to serve.
Fortunately you’re wrong, stupid, and your opinion doesn’t matter
I didn't want either team to lose.
I was in the student lounge at my school and saw this on Bud Light TV. That was a hell of a transition.
Wait until the Chinese learn to play this.
You won't believe how good they'll be playing ping-pong on the ground, not on a small table! 🤣😆
They do
Communication and teamwork has left the chat.
Exactly what I thought! I used to play doubles tennis, and when I ball came smack in the middle, it was important for someone to call “mine!” Or something so they wouldn’t collide and their partner could get in a ready position for a following return.
Girl in pink was everywhere she shouldn’t have been.
A combination of a tennis & ping pong
How football is like arena football.
That's intense! Love it! Am learning the game! 😊 it's fun! If you can learn it please do! 😊❤
well, if you stand in the middle in a doubles match, you are likely to lose. 😅
I mean, yeah... and I don't know pickleball(!), but they're playing at SUCH high level here, they must have some reason to believe this can work; i e., rebuttals to the usual objections to playing like this... I'd be really curious to hear their strategy discussions -- esp. because that's what ends up happening here! Their opponents finally get one out wide enough to the woman's forehand to get weak return that they can take advantage of. Boom. Your playing the middle did, finally, cost you.
By the time this match gets over, Djokovic would have won Wimbledon 2023
And you will have done nothing
Love, love this game!
Can't be a point if your not serving, lol
But yes nice long rally, 😮
In the MLP tournaments they use rally scoring, which means that you score a point after winning a rally even if you didn’t serve. They play to 21 instead of 11 because of this
Each team should have applauded the other team for such a long rally. That would have shown sportsmanship which is sometimes but not always lacking these days.
What a rally, counted 56 hits!!!
Why is pickle ball so entertaining😂👏
Only fitting that the point was won on the one who failed "sharing" in kindergarten.
Right girl is the nightmare partner, stay in your lane
That was fun to watch!
That was great practice! When do we start the game?
THAT being the most viral pickleball point tells me everything I ever need to know about pickleball. So stupid
Tells me everything I need to know about you, watching it and complaining.
Tennis for children, the elderly and lazy people
Also disabled and out of shape folks. I thought this and then i saw pb spokesperson on TV say the same thing in an interview lol
😮 amazing battle.
Amazing thing is that there are people to see this …
When you're in your 30s but want to excel at a sport so you pick one made for people in their 70s.
@@DESERTH4WK a real life internet troll, well played. Uh yeah no it's not even close.
@@DESERTH4WK I'm sure your 2.0 Tennis level will have a slower game and less reactions.
@@KnightMDevery tennis player can walk onto a pickleball court and play fairly well... The same can't be said about a pb player. "Easier than tennis..." 😂 2.0 playing red ball.
You’re the troll posting negative comments on the internet
Give me a day of Pickleball training and I’m beating them single-handedly
Lol, guaranteed that would not happen. Not even remotely close.
@@seanwilson512 varsity high school tennis is literally enough. Just have good reaction speed and you will win
@THEGOAT another ridiculous comment, thanks for the mid-week comedy 🙂
Is it easier vs tennin? absolutely yes without question. Tennis players pick up the game very quickly but still takes time to level up. The numerous statements similar to yours saying how easy it would be to beat these pros with little to no practice is laughable. Just proves you've never played.
High ranking college tennis players (& some low ranked pro tennis players) have switched to pickleball and get smoked by the 16yr old in this video yet you're saying all it takes is a HS tennis players level 🤦
Lol, sure Clown.
@@seanwilson512 yea no, i played varsity tennis, this shits fucking easy, i made everyone look like a amateur, played pretty good players in the tournament as well
I never knew how fan this was ❤😂
Nice Set !
Pickleball: the sport where you dont have to be a pro to be a pro
you only have to beat your local neighborhood team to be considered a pro. I bet qualifiers get like 50/64 players
@@DESERTH4WK no you don't, compared to tennis, the ball is SOOO much slower. Someone could smash a passing shot and you could still run back and get it
I can't wait until the women's game is taken over by brutish ogres who scream on every point like Serena Williams.
Amazing !!
If someone was wondering why one of them was hitting the ball more than the other was because she has a better chance of hitting it because it’s her inside hand! I see that one is left hand and one is right, so they are both inside hands, but they decide before the game who gets the inside hits
When you wanna play Tennis and PingPong at the same time cos you’re bad at them separately
Your mad becuase pickle ball players have fun while your not. Stay mad bud
lol..what a joke
Gotta love it PICKLE BALL♥️👍🏼😊
It’s bad to hit down on the ball because it affects your hitting
Woahh😍😍 wish I was there would be there cheerrr and hootingg!!
O esporte com raquete mais sonolento de todos...
Wow what an amazing rally!
Fantastic!!
THAT..WAS....AWESOME.
That's was awesome.
Beautiful!
I now see y its so addictive
Rallies are so fun to watch!
The girl with the skirt should of worry more about her side of the court and not thinking that she was playing by herself !
That was insane 😮
That was a battle 🤣😂
That was incredible....
Sick
Can confirm that this is the most viral pickleball point I've seen... Because it's the only one 😂
👍
Tennis is basically volleyball except you can’t jump and you have no friends
Bro was on the other side of the court 😂
The women’s pickle ball games are more intense than the men’s
Fabulous ❤
