🪵 The PPA Sacramento Vintage Open gave us a full weekend of pros playing with WOOD paddles — and it went about as wild as you’d expect. Upsets, strange results, paddle drama (yes, even with wood paddles), and some of the worst — and funniest — paddle smashes I’ve ever seen. Plus, Jack Sock showed up in full retro mode.

In this recap, I’ll cover:
🔥 The paddle controversy before the event even started
💥 Hunter Johnson’s F-minus paddle smash (and why it was so bad)
🎾 Genie Bouchard’s first PPA Tour final
🥇 Surprising winners & upsets across men’s and women’s doubles
📊 Why the “throwback vibe” didn’t really translate into throwback pickleball
