Did you see me on ESPN 😮

Hey Team,

Sorry for the mid-week interruption. Don’t worry – your exclusive video will come on Thursday.

Today, I wanted to share two special announcements! ✌️

First, you can join me for a 🎉 watch party 🎉 LIVE on YouTube this Friday as I watch for the first time 🫣 my APP Newport Beach Open Semifinal match, which aired on ESPN+.

Why was I on ESPN+? 🤔

In case you missed it, my partner, Kyle “ThatPickleballGuy” Koszuta, and I advanced from the Qualifiers to the Semi-Finals at the APP Newport Beach Open, taking out the number one seed in the process! 🥇

Unfortunately, we fell short of winning the whole thing, but we were SUPER PROUD to take home 4th place! 🤗

If you’re curious about anything from the match, join the LIVE WATCH PARTY on my YouTube stream on Friday, July 12th, and ask any questions. 🙋

I’ve wanted to do a live stream like this for a while – because I know it can bring immense value to you as a player and your journey to 5.0. 💪

This seems like the perfect time to do it.

I’ll confirm the time and provide a link in Thursday's newsletter so you know when to join me.

It’s going to be EPIC.

I hope you can make it.

Now, the second announcement…

Playing with Kyle was an absolute blast 💥, and we played extremely well together. Based on the emails you all sent me after the last one, it seems like most of you knew how amazing it was going to be. 👊

So, the second special announcement is that Kyle and I are teaming up again for the PPA Selkirk Open in Kansas City!

We’re going to try to catch that magic again.

Look for more information in this Thursday’s newsletter!
