McGuffin set to return from injury in North Carolina

DALLAS, TX - After missing the last two tournaments, Tyson McGuffin is ready to get back on the pickleball court.

The 13-time PPA gold medalist announced Sunday that he’s fully recovered from a foot injury that has sidelined him for the past month.

McGuffin will next compete at the Fanatics Sportsbook North Carolina Cup that will run April 1-7. He’ll play men’s singles, men’s doubles with Dekel Bar, and mixed doubles with Meghan Dizon.

‘The most electrifying man in sports’ will be looking to add to his 2024 medal collection that already includes one silver and one bronze medal.
