2022 St. Louis Pickleball Open Pro Women's Singles Gold: Michelle Esquivel VS Parris Todd

[@ScottT109]

Paris Todd seems to be in top form and the one to beat on the ladies circuit. Very composed and focused

[@JTGA38NG]

I actually enjoy watching Paris play because she doesn’t scream after routine points. Getting out of hand.

[@JTGA38NG]

@@donaldrichards3373 well that would annoy me as well

[@zachcarmichael699]

Have you seen tennis?

[@erwinb9035]

24:11 that middle finger of frustration eek.

[@edgeprobability]

can't believe Esquivel flicked off Todd @24:10

[@kenspencer9895]

I was hoping Todd would win, based on the courtside manners of Esquivel in the first set.

[@solo2rules]

Ref miscalls the score and Paris suffers the consequences?

[@pickleballer1729]

That's happened a few times lately. Can anyone forget the infamous miscall of the score on game point in the Kovalova/ Smith vs Parenteau/Irvine (?) where Parenteau held up her and, and Callie Smith and Kovalova took that as her stopping the rally and just walked off the court with the win? They REALLY need to replay those.

[@cresina]

24:11 sucks to see that level of pettyness glad she lost.

[@ThanhTran-ii8el]

Ref totally never said the score at 5-13 but she said she did.... I had to rewatch it a couple of times to make sure the ref never said the score!

[@TC-dw6wg]

Todd takes too long between points. Understand to a degree, why Escavelle was aggravated.

[@pickleballer1729]

Hmm, Parris Top beat ALW in 3 out of 5 last week and she's only rated #21? I'm guessing she will "upset" Esquivel. Now to watch and see...

[@technicaltrader7413]

the ref very unprofessional. should not be a ref. sucks

[@JonnyEsq17]

People that yell this much in Pickleball are weird

[@anupshah9779]

#10 and #22 players misses that many serves/returns. It seemed to me no one tries to come closer to kitchen and just playing it at base line just like Tennis. No interesting at all.

[@karentanney7]

Prefer Pickleball vs tennis games. L

[@federicorusso4378]

Pickleball seems fun but let's be honest... the fact that people in bad shape can get to the "top" speaks volumes as to why it will never be up there with other sports such as tennis in terms of professionalism.

[@SimKieu]

you think one of them is in bad shape lol? What about Serena Williams lol?

[@goober3156]

Bro, it’s starting to gain in popularity. Once it gets more athletes, that will change. This type of game play will transition more to the net and volley as that happens

[@netseraph08]

I could not stand her waistline. Being #10, this is insulting to this sport.

[@JoJo-Campeon]

You’re not seen anywhere in the top 30 list. 👀

[@jackiebean7438]

Obvi in good shape. How do you know she isnt diabetic?

[@netseraph08]

No wonder people joke about pickleball . Look at the waistline.
