india win big at world pickleball championship series, bag 11 gold medals

Indian picklers won big at the World Pickleball Championship Series, finishing with a whopping 28 medals, 11 out of which were gold. They were the best-performing team and thus also won the team event title. The tournament was organised by the All India Pickleball Association.

The sport has picked up fast in India and the massive participation as well as the medal tally shows that Indians have taken quickly to pickleball and are slowly becoming masters at the art.

The World Pickleball Championship Series, which ended with much fanfare, witnessed participation from more than 17 nations, 55 international players and over 500 Indian athletes, making it one of the largest global events for pickleball.

In the 19+ OPEN Category, Sonu Vishwakarma beat Spain's Mauro Garcia to bag gold. The encounter was tight but the former maintained the lead right from the first point itself. The final score read 21-14. Kuldip Mahajan, on the other hand, thrashed Taiwan's Lin Guang Sian 21-9 to bag bronze.

In the 35+ men's singles category, Vietnam's Carlos Rubio made a brilliant comeback to win gold as he beat Ankit Mody marginally, by a score of 21-19. Mody was leading 19-10 and looked confident of winning gold, but Rubio made a comeback in the game, playing brilliantly to win gold. Vivek Reddy beat Rohan Salvi to bag bronze in the same category, with the final score reading 15-7.

In the 19+ women's doubles category, Australia's Andie Dikosavljevic and India’s Vrushali Thakare thrashed Philippines' Anna Clarice Patri and Australia’s Ludovica Sciaky to bag gold with a final score of 21-9. Australia’s Nicola Schoeman and Danni-Elle Townsend beat Aiko Yoshitomi and Mihika Yadav to bag bronze.

Notably, Townsend had earlier won silver in the mixed doubles at the PWR DUPR India Masters last month.

In the 35+ women's doubles category, Priyanka Mehta and Shraddha Damani thrashed Sindoor Mittal and Simran Bangera to win gold with a score of 21-6. Pooja Rao and Radhika Trivedi beat Shakuntala Devnani and Gayatri Mewada to bag bronze.
