Tennis players going to pickleball is either the tennis player is getting old, theyre injuried or all their friends suck at tennis so they have to play pickleball.
I'm a former tennis player and pickleball is fine, but the more I play doubles the more bored I get with it, especially higher level because it's non-stop dinking. Singles pickleball on the other hand I've started to really enjoy. Way more shot making, quicker points, and power is rewarded more.
Rarely do these videos talk about the totally different BALL BOUNCE. This is THEE most important thing to know. In tennis many times you rise with your legs through the shot. How er, in pickleball the ball slows down a lot after the bounce and is much lower. Your spacing to the ball and staying down through the shot needs to be practiced.
Tennis players will be making videos soon showing non tennis players how to play modern pickleball. Players with no tennis background will struggle to keep up soon.
NOT true with the return of serve in PB, especially in single. You see professional PB players such as ALW or Catherine Parentau stay back at the baseline after the return of serve. They only rush to the kitchen about 50% of the time. You can also hit the ball hard with topspin on the ball.
Yes this is true in singles but generally not in doubles. The only reason you should stay back in singles is to find a good ball to come in on. It might not be advantageous to advance if your on your back foot or can’t swing with forward momentum. The point is that many beginners stay back in doubles and it creates a disadvantage more times than not
I have to change 😢. My rotator cuff for serving is no more and with neck injuries from a car accident, I don’t have the rotation I want and need. Add years of playing sports and other injuries, tennis is unfortunately no more unless I just want to hit. So, pickleball it s and surprisingly I’m enjoying it.

Tennis players need to stop switching to pickleball, it’s not a real sport, just stop

Tennis is just better. Pickleball looks like a kids' game that is played by adults.
Have you ever played before?
Really
