Sock has to the be most athletic, exciting guy to watch right now. In the past month, he's expanded on his rocket forehand to also include a good backhand. Paired up with CP, its great!
Jack has really improved at the net. I already knew he was going to be a singles monster based on his tennis background but at this rate I wouldn't be surprised if he gets a gold or two in doubles
No, Jack Sock is the actual Jack Sock. Which, as a former top-10 tennis player, makes him a better athlete with greater handskills, movement, and power than 99.99 of the competition he's going to find here.
Jack Sock might dream about being Ben Johns but not even close yet!
The dink is going to become extinct.
It’s cool to watch him improve. I think that if he loses some weight and gets back in shape, he will probably be unstoppable for a couple of years.
Jack has inspired me to start playing😂
What racquet is jack sock using???
Never heard of Ben Johns. Might as well say Ben Johns is the old Jack Sock.
Jack Sock is a beast – he's really adapted to the pro level by anticipating rather than reacting. Few can do it well. His level of coverage also seems way higher than what I'm used to seeing.
IMO, stupid title. Sock is Sock, Johns is Johns. Pretty soon you'll say Sock is the new GOAT.
anyone else reminded of the unfair phenomenon of men in women's sports?
What’s the etiquette in PB? No apologies with a body shot? Think the female player signed her teams death warrant with her unapologetic body shot to Sock. Was great to see.
Sock is a Wimbledon Doubles Grand Slam Champ. The other team had zero chance.
Jack Sock is definitely Left-eye dominant but his explosiveness is much more extreme and lamentably for Ben Mr. Sock is fun to watch!! 😇
It was only a matter of time til jack got acclimated to pickleball. He was an elite tennis pro, he’s gonna dominate pickleball
This ball seems plastic. Is this sport called plastic ball?
LOL! Title is a joke. Ben Johns will never be Jack Sock. Jack Sock is Jack Sock.
Did ben johns play touch tennis ?
It's only a matter of time before tennis players dominate the pickleball game. Once tennis players figure out how increase power on the serve the dink will probably be rare and overheads. Players better start wearing eye protection
Players better start wearing eye protection, the games going to get much faster and harder, and being so close to your opponent , more injuries and more temper flares ânf more drama.
I miss Jack on the ATP tour, but his later years in singles weren't working out. In doubles he was a beast. Glad to see him having success in PB. His anticipation skills are off the charts when he moves across the court.
Jack has found a sport where he can dominate while still maintaining a fairly decent beer belly.
This is such a stupid title. Their play styles are completely different. Jack is a solid player but he doesn't just purely dominate anyone like Ben has the last few years.
No one has quite had a forehand like Jack. Curious to see if people will eventually learn to play against it but right now it's a huge weapon.
not really and not nearly as fun to watch.
callie been spending too much time being an influencer
I think PB is trying to bring in names to get more people into PB- the McEnroe, Agassi etc move was for that reason. Sock is well known, whereas Jones is known only for the aficionados of PB…
He's the new Ben Johns because he's an actual athlete playing pickleball now… The time when amateurs dominated pickleball is over now that real athletes are starting to move over to pickleball. Sock has played pickleball for what, a few months? a year? and he is already beating guys who have been playing and "training" for years.
Why demean someone with a description like that. Jack Sock is Jack Sock and not a new someone else.
