Do not underestimate the power of having your ass kicked. It is a nice lesson of humility.
Especially when you’re dressed like a pumpkin (while the others obviously didn’t notice the tournament was “Halloween themed”). - Fluorescent orange was definitely not your colour, but you handled it.
So did you handle warming up for 5 teeny tiny minutes before playing your first game against the “Hey, did you know she’s the N°1 PICKLEBALL PLAYER IN FRANCE ?” Sorry, what?
Let me tell you, there is a particular flavour to not scoring a single point. So is there to ending at the rock bottom. ^^ But know what? You get to say you got utterly crushed by THE BEST. And you got to talk and watch them closely do their thing.
