Semifinal matchups set for PPA Finals

After three days of grueling pool play competition, players have made it to the weekend at the Toys "R" Us PPA Finals presented by JOOLA.

The weekend will see a return to the traditional PPA Tour tournament format with Semifinal Saturday and Carvana Championship Sunday action taking place at the Life Time Rancho San Clemente facility.

The top two finishers from each pool advanced to the semifinals; now, the first-place team from Pool A will face the second-place team from Pool B and vice versa.

Live broadcast coverage from Southern California will be available on Pickleballtv starting at 10am PT before moving to Fox Sports 1 exclusively from 4-6pm PT.

Here is Saturday's order of play:
