He is serving head level. Wow.
Johns definitely feels like the more patient player. He doesn't let the loss of the first game get to his head. McGuffins seems so emotional and erratic.
Yes. And you don’t need to be jacked to win in this sport. You need to be methodical
How does he get away with such illegal serves? The first one was like chest height!?
Most of them look high and definitely not underhand.
McGayins serves they are illegal. Wont be called though. Gotta treat the little darlin different
@@7wmarsh7 If his navel is in the middle of his upper torso. His paddle is up over his wrist too. Look at his ground stroke in the same point. It's the exact same as his serve. They aren't legal.
Yep, refs just ignore
Which one? They both seem to be questionable.
What can you say Ben is a pro! He is consistent, methodical, principled and strategic!!
He is, and seemed collected throughout the match. This was very close though, could have gone either way.
And mentally strong, cool, calm and collect
lmao did you hire YT reply guy bots? @8706utube very astute additional points
@@alfredeneuman6966in theory. But in practice it almost goes one way.
Grown men playing a 'sport' that's akin to small children playing badminton? Lmao
It’s hilarious to see Tyson with sweat just POURING off him while Johns looks like hes dry as powder wearing two shirts lol.
"the most electrifying man in sports as they say"
good lord announcer
Embarrassing. No one has ever heard of him and I don’t think PB is a sport so much as a fun activity.
@@frankfurter7260hot take lmao
@@frankfurter7260don’t all sports start that way?
and I loved the 'these guys are over this match-- nothing left in the tank' after 45 minutes? geez.
@@treywimTime to cut down on the drinking, lol
I was just going to comment on his server. They are way above his waist at times!!
Who says that, can Pickleball not find any other commentators?
@@AllHijinksNoHighDinks They say it like it's one word "Benjohns"
I can't believe I'm watching McGuffin do an illegal serve every single time and get away with it.
As if bro. You're taking into account the angle of the camera etc. And if you slow it down you can see it's fine. Don't you think the person with the best view in the house, Ben Johns, would say something if he was serving illegally?
@@NS-qj8xj It doesn't matter if he starts his swing below his waist level, the contact with the ball must be done below the waist. You watched his serves and truly didn't see him above the waistline?
@@davejohnson8338 the serve rule gets muddied when they say below the waistline, specifically the navel. I will say this. Tyson has a lot of movement in his serve, he changes levels a lot. So he definitely makes it tricky to call.
@@NS-qj8xj To be fair, all the pros do it. They get REALLY close to the line and it's hard to call either way. It's up to the refs to call it not the players. Ben's serve is borderline at times as well.
I was looking for this comment. I slow mo'd over 10 of Tyson's serves because they all looked illegal to me. Paddle-wrist position is fine, but in a lot of them the paddle makes contact with the ball above his waist
really wanted Tyson to take this but Ben just always finds a way. Great Game!!
YAY 🎉
TM’s annoy high serve & the cross center line step during the serve…
0:24 Is that serve allowed? Seems quite high above the waist
This comes up quite a bit . I believe that is is illegal though he always serves way above his waist but they never call it
They changed it to belly button long ago.
Nice save by the lady in the grandstands at about 19:48
McGuffin’s servers don’t look legal to me. What do you all think?
Check out the foot faults every time in the even court. He crosses the center line by first shifting his tow, then sliding to the left.
He hits the ball below his belly button so it's legal.
All these ppl confidently declaring serves illegal -- please don't become refs. If not 100% certain, no call is the best call.
@@AllHijinksNoHighDinks The rules have nothing to do with your belly button. Underhand serve from below the waist. He is not doing that.
Borski Nation Unite 🙌
I swear Tyson is overheating. He keeps drying off his sweat every couple rounds. Look how red he is in the end of the 2nd game.
I’m not a pickle baller…but I think it’s hilarious how these announcers are talking about how hard these guys are working, how their legs are so fatigued, etc. I’m sorry but I can’t take that serious at all. Djokovic, federer, nadal 5 set nearly 5 hour bloodbaths at majors is hard on the body. Let me see either of these two pickle ball guys put their bodies through what those others have and maybe I’ll take em somewhat serious
@PK first of all this isn't tennis, period. Secondly, this was their 4th match of the day to qualify for finals. Pretty sure tennis is one and done. Also at these tournaments, play often starts at 9 am - this game went until 730pm roughly -that's a long ass day in very hot conditions 90 degrees... Pickleball tournaments are condensed into usually 4 day events (singles quali, gender quali, and mixed doubles quali, then championship sunday).
Comparison is the thief of joy... I'd like to see those tennis folks last 20 minutes in a high school wrestling practice. The strength and endurance required for wrestling far exceeds any tennis player's tank.
See how ridiculous I sound?
that's apples to oranges...its like saying how basketball players can compete against soccer players.
you guys literally play 4 points a game lol no wonder yall have like 50 games.
@@AllHijinksNoHighDinks rally scoring too, ends super fast LOLOLOOLLL
Fantastic!
Need a little help with the rules. Are you not allowed to hit it in the red part of the court?
Darn, singles are indeed not hot to watch. Most of the time nothing goes past 5 returns
Lol.. I was recommended this video after watching Djokovic-Alcaraz play. There's a huge contrast
Great games, gentlemen.
I feel like over half of McGuffin's serves are above his waist. Is that not illiegal?
Someone else noticed the high serves too..
I'm confused on the scoring. Do you get points on servers winners?
Guff is a small guy. He could damn near overhead it and be serving around the same height as johnny boy.
Is pickle ball for people who can’t play proper tennis?
EXACTLY!
I want those shorts Ben is wearing
I love watching it but hearing the two sports casters drool over Ben Johns ruins it. I understand he is number one but try to keep it a little less bias.
for me it's the way they drool over Tyson McGuffin. its annoying
Commentators drool over John’s like he is a super power!
You gotta give the #1 player in the world his props.
Tyson serve is so sketchy. How does that work? It looks off
Is there any real money in "professional" pickleball? I chuckle just typing that. This is supposed to be a fun, recreational, accessible alternative to tennis and people have created a monster out of it.
Everybody loves it. The people have spoken.
@@networth00 That doesn't address my question. Yes, it's a huge hit among the masses, but do the pros make much money playing it? I sincerely doubt it.
@@fillflashdetailer8838 Not yet.
@@networth00What people exactly? Kindergarteners? Lol
@@networth00Not yet as in ever, ha ha
Tyson’s footwork is amazing
guy is a crack head
good game, mcmuffin needs to even out his high and low mentally. he gets so puffed up over a point won.
OK. What's with all the commercials now? Not coming back here.
Seems like an anatomy lesson is needed. The navel line is not the nipple line lol
Hopefully these players are being tested for PED's... Just saying...
At 8:35 McGuffin volleys with the foot on the line isn’t that against the rules
I don’t understand how Ben keeps pulling through
A LOT more discipline and resilience.
the same here. kind nerd who plays sports with bad technique
It seems like singles needs singles lines like in badminton.
@@AllHijinksNoHighDinks narrow side lines for singles. It seems too easy to get balls passed people
@@AllHijinksNoHighDinks badminton and tennis have singles lines so why not?
@@AllHijinksNoHighDinks to be honest I just recently started playing so I don’t know much, it just seems like it would benefit from having less court to cover In singles.
like 20 people there watching, less then 10 year old girls softball
HEHEHE, RIGHT?!
Is it just me or are all of McGuffin's serves hit above his waist?
crazy tyson scored more points and lost
Dumb comment. Even in tennis you could lose the first set without scoring a point then winning easily in the next 2.
CHANGE THE RULES......... ALLOW THE FOREHAND SERVE.... THEY DON'T CALL IT ANYWAY.
Strike the ball below the belly button and it's legal.
Basically every serve from McGuffin was illegal in this game lol
What shorts is Mcguffin wearing? I like those a lot
this is the number one player in the world? His drops were mediocre at best -- and then the commentary of they are emptying their tanks? Tennis players go for 4-5 hours with WAY more running.
Bugatti backhand
I grew up on the tennis circuit, and I also played a lot of racquetball and paddle tennis; I've never played pickle ball. But, what I noticed immediately -- both with McGuffin and Johns (and all others that I've watched) -- is the fact that there's much too much back-and-forth "finesse" shots at the net, and too little "banging away" (read: hit the ball directly at your opponent, and hit it hard, before the finesse shots even begin!). I believe that the odds for scoring would favor the banger rather than the finesse player, and, at least, it would make the game a lot more interesting to watch.
Just as importantly, the players MUST develop their backhands, whereby they can make their passing shots (low and hard ala Federer) from the backcourt, and not just use the stroke for a punch ball at the net. HIT AWAY NOW, BECAUSE THAT'S WHERE THE GAME WILL BE IN A YEAR OR TWO!
Typically "bangers" are in the 3.0 - 3.5 range.
To improve beyond that, one must develop finesse.
Everyone is a "banger" when they start.
It's a fun game and if you enjoyed tennis, you would likely enjoy pickleball, too. Running around the court is a great way to get exercise and have fun.
Pickleball is a control game
You need to play. You're supposed to finesse shots at the net a lot. This is not tennis bro.
Paddle tennis is so much more fun than this. This is like oversized ping pong
@@camiloorsini9674 no
It appears that McGuffin footfaults on his serve almost every time from the even court. Just before contact, he moves his left toe towards the center line and crosses it. I guess it could be the camera angle
They look quite High as well
@@goldenchildtheater they are high but that is much more difficult to see unless you do slow-mo and refs can't do that.
Ref can see , they just don’t care
I didn't watch all the serves but one I did watch in slowmo that someone else pointed out at the 15:00 mark - he's lifting off his left foot, so only his right foot is planted - thus at point of contact it's still a legal serve since his only grounded foot is within the perameters. As far as how high the point of contact is or paddle angle vs wrist, I dunno about that legality.
McGuffin’s serves are illegal
After seeing how much Tyson was celebrating his points and how his emotions affected his mentality… I knew from the first 15 min that he was going to lose.
He started playing sloppier towards the middle and end. Lacks focus.
Ben is mentally stronger and more focused
I think he's just out there having fun.
not trying to downplay these two athletes’ great performances here, but if you think these guys were tired after 30 or 45 minutes then you should see some of these pro tennis matches that go 3+ hours and have marathon-esque points
Tennis boring af, nobody trynna watch 3 hours of that shit
what is the point of this comment 💀 🤡
@@mechtist i heard the announcers say they seemed gassed and it just made me think ab tennis matches and how much running fhere rly is thats all. pickleball is hard at a high lvl and i respect the players but its hard bc of strategy and not so much endurance
Wow another video of the dude who always serves illegally. If the rules arent even going to be enforced why even have the rules then.
This is so Funny!! Why not just Play Tennis?
Agreed! 💯
@@jc2604And you're in kindergarten? Lol
are they not allowed to smash infront of the net or what is going on? i cant stand watching this lol.
These commentators are all on bens D it’s annoying.
Impressive game and love pickleball but full courts singles are just cross court contests
Please stop talking!!!!
As a varsity 1 seed tennis player in my hay-day, I can't understand why Ben is watching MCGuffin slice and volley every single return and didn't start attacking it until the middle of the second game? It's like he knew what was coming and instead of trying to force a winner he just popped the ball up directly in the middle of the court and watched McGuffin run it down his throat over and over again?
Seems like Ben calls anything close out right away.
Ben is well known for playing any ball close and probably the most fair line caller out there.
@@JTGA38NG 💯
McGuffin has John's number; it's so obvious..
Pickleball Nadal in the making in front of our very eyes..
Ben fan hopium comments bark-dry in the chat kindling for future poetry..
Man are you in for a surprise when you finish the video...
@@DanKaschel had watched; knew the outcome. DIDN'T know Mcguffin has his own sponsored podcast and now I hate him 🤣
so gg I guess?🤝
Cute game for the kids, the old folks and the weak.
@@jc2604 I have played, but I won't play anymore. It's too boring.
@@jc2604 I won. It was too easy, lmfao
@@jc2604Go back to badminton, lmao
how is this a sport?
I agree, this is not a sport.
A yellow shirt, really Ben.
Test
Uh, if your 'sport' includes the word pickle as part of its name perhaps it's akin to kindergarten? Lol
what a snooze fest
I love playing Pickleball, I would do it everyday if I could. But watching Pickleball on a screen is like watching paint dry. Maybe it’s just me…
I much prefer to watch doubles as there seems to be so much more variation.
It’s just you Ethan.
Just you brother
It has less appeal on the screen than in person IMO. I like watching on screen to slow down the speed and learn but unlike pro tennis, there is not that much variety in points. Especially in doubles. But playing it is great.
I'm with you. Gave it 6 minutes just to see a recommended video, and I can't do it... there's too many other things for my time esp if this is the two best in the sport trying to mimic tennis strokes with a plastic 3/4 ounce ball, ugh. I'd never pay a nickel to watch this live or otherwise. Funny, I came to comments if anyone thought the same. Yup lol
People get into pickleball sine they aren’t good enough in tennis lol
Not at all. It's so fun, and I play both. .001% of us can ever play tennis at a high level so why are you complaining? We just want to have fun.
Both players are serving illegal, above the waist.
such a deeply and profoundly exciting sport and match! i can't wait until whiffle baseball becomes a professional sport as well. seniors like whiffle baseball, dont they?
