Junior PPA celebrates first-ever Triple Crown winner, Ryder Brown
DALLAS, TX – History was recently made in the Junior PPA.
During the CIBC Texas Open, 12-year-old Ryder Brown claimed gold in junior boys singles, junior boys doubles, and junior mixed doubles to become the first Junior PPA player to secure a Triple Crown.
Brown currently occupies the No. 1 spot in each division of the Junior PPA rankings.
Brown is one of many up-and-coming youngsters who absolutely love the sport and play it well, and as more and more kids pick up a paddle, it’s only a matter of time before we meet a whole new generation of pickleball stars.
With tournament experience under his belt - and valuable hardware to show for it - Brown is learning the tricks of the trade and developing his game in the process.
That's a recipe for future success.
