He described his reasons for switching this way: \"At first I just wanted to find out what was so interesting about this sport. But before I knew it, I was hooked. Pickleball is easy to learn and anyone can do it. That's why it suits Vietnamese people.\" Bringing across the reaction speed and footwork he built in tennis, he won several titles at PPA events in Asia and broke into the upper reaches of the men's world rankings. For equipment, he uses Kamito paddles as a brand ambassador. Hisdouble title at the Asian event on home soil<\/a>was received locally as the moment Vietnam produced a champion of its own rather than relying on overseas players.<\/p>\n Vietnam's open division squad heading to Da Nang has 10 players. \u0110\u1ed7 Minh Qu\u00e2n captains the side, alongside L\u00fd Ho\u00e0ng Nam, Quang D\u01b0\u01a1ng, Ph\u00fac Hu\u1ef3nh, Tr\u01b0\u01a1ng Vinh Hi\u1ec3n and the aforementioned Tr\u1ecbnh Linh Giang. Beyond the open division, the national team also fields players in the junior (U18) and children's (U14) categories.<\/p>\n What stands out is that this lineup is built on an inflow from tennis and junior sports. L\u00fd and Tr\u1ecbnh played doubles together in tennis, and now the two line up together as national team pickleball players. Top athletes who switched sports outright forming a national squad within a few years \u2014 that speed says everything about where Vietnam stands.<\/p>\n Da Nang can carry an event of this size because of what it built the year before. In 2025, the city hosted the PPA Tour Asia's MB Vietnam Cup for the first time, drawing headline names such as Ben Johns and Tyson McGuffin along with 600 players from about 20 countries and territories. This year's national selection and international tournament sit on top of a foundation that the world's best professionals have already visited.<\/p>\n
