McGuffin and partner Meghan Dizon lost their spot in the mixed doubles quarterfinals, while Anna Bright and James Ignatowich automatically advanced to the semis.

It's a disappointing result for pickleball fans eveywhere, of course, who always enjoy watching McGuffin's trademark intensity in the heat of battle.

We wish Tyson a speedy recovery!
