Zane recaps a week of major pro pickleball action across the US Open and PPA Sacramento, highlighting controversies and standout results. At the US Open, Anna Leigh Waters and Jay Devilliers won mixed doubles after a tense third game that required 16 championship points, while Anna Leigh and her mom Leigh defended their women’s doubles title. Zane also notes debate over line calls, upsets in singles and questions the US Open’s current pro relevance given prize money and contract restrictions. In Sacramento, he covers Lea Jansen losing on a challenge-rule technicality, Ben Johns’ singles appearance and loss to JW Johnson, Hunter Johnson’s paddle-toss ejection, Eric Oncins receiving an unsportsmanlike warning for blowing the ball, new partnerships, mixed gold for Oncins/Tyra Black, Ben Johns/Gabe Tardio staying undefeated in men’s doubles, and paddle sponsor/banned-proton updates, plus “paddle slams” and top shots.
