A Helpful Tip (Video):

In case you missed it yesterday, I just released my second Youtube video of the year and it's been a hit so far. 

In fact, check out the video comments below (the last one cracked me up 😂).

  • "This video is an instant classic. This will be cited by everyone to teach beginners the importance of coming up to the line."
  • "The editing on these videos has always been very good, but it popped in this one. Great watch and great info!"
  • Best ever video on the topic. Going to show to my spouse before this weekend's tournament. Might save my (47 year) marriage."

Enjoy!👇



For the Pickleball Nerds: 

Believe it or not, I've spent the past month studying chess. 

Immersing myself into books, podcasts, and Gary Kasparov's masterclass. And no, I'm not declaring my journey to pro chess. Yet ðŸ˜‰. But here's the kicker.

Chess and pickleball are more alike than I originally thought. From intention to prediction to psychology, strategy, and endgame philosophy, the similarities are undeniable.

So, with that said, I've been writing a script for a future youtube video, and thought, maybe you all would enjoy a sneak peak into these thoughts & ideas.

My Journey Playing Pro Pickleball: 

I'm not playing in the PPA desert ridge this weekend but, I am commentating on pickleballtv.com. I'm pretty certain it will be from 11:00 - 3:00 mountain time. Still to confirm that tonight but check in to hear me break down the matches!

See you next week,

Kyle
