In this video, a 3.0 gold medal game in which the players all play really well. Most of what they do is good, but, there are a couple of things they can improve upon. Check it out.

They are all better than 3.0 - probably 3.5 players. Which explains why it's the gold medal match

Enjoyed the video and the commentary. Better volleys than some I have seen with higher ratings. Young guy was better than 3.0.

All players were solid. And definitely stronger than 3.0. I think they're all in the 3.5 range.

They probably are. Thanks for watching.

This really just documents how messed up the rating system is in pickleball. Regardless of the gold medal match maybe only one, the woman in the blue shirt, is a legit 3.0. Really makes it frustrating for those who are 3.0 to play against ppl sandbagging to win a tourney.

We're on the same page. The dupr system and the self rating system are both flawed.

Rory needs to be careful vocalizing his assumptions. Years ago, I was training a new-hire and we finished on a weekend. Normally, I would introduce him to senior level management after training was complete but their office was closed. I told him to walk in and introduce himself on Monday. This young man walks into the Area Director's office, a guy who is in charge of thousands of employees, takes one look at the pictures on the wall and compliments what he believes are his grandchildren. The pictures were of his children. When you only have one chance to make a first impression, think before you speak.

You don't think that ball at 12:09 would have been close? It may have dropped in. It looks like she put a little topspin on it.

Might have been. Thanks for watching.

All these players were able to make shots during some of the rallies at a 4.0 level . But they are rated 3.0. ? I guess it's just a matter of consistency that keeps them at 3.0.

@pickleballpick-apart9787 6 ай бұрын

Should probably be playing at a higher rating. Thanks for watching.

These are definitely 3.0s. But usually gold medal 3.0 games have 3.5s in them, so good for this tournament.

Thanks for watching. And, thanks for your comment.

@robinprocida7817 9 ай бұрын

Your comment makes no sense. They are 3.0 but because they are in the gold medal match they are 3.5? It’s exactly what I see I most tournaments. Sandbagging especially at 3.0 which is especially frustrating for those legitimate 3.0s that want to play tournaments.

That's exactly what I said, Robin. @@robinprocida7817

the ladies are closer to 3.5 than 3.0. guy in white is a 3.0 young guy is a 3.5 maybe 3.6 . It's why pickleball ratings at tournaments are generally BS and people don't often play in their proper skill rating. imho

Yes, the rating system is flawed. Thanks for watching.

In our club we end up lumping the 3.5 and 4.0 together if theres not enough turnout, or the 3.0 with the 3.5.

At the 3 min mark the young man is volleying from the kitchen

@pickleballpick-apart9787 9 ай бұрын

Thanks for watching and pointing that out. I did not catch it.

@CWK090 Ай бұрын

At 3:00, he is back. At 3:40, it looks like he is volleying from the kitchen but he is not. The yellow NVZ line is where you see the shadow of the tape. That white line that you think is the kitchen is for some other sport.
