Ben Johns himself was overwhelmed by the passion for pickleball of Vietnamese people when he arrived in Ho Chi Minh City to attend the Pickleball Legends Tour event (March 26 at Rach Mieu Stadium, Ho Chi Minh City and March 27 at Gia Lam Stadium, Hanoi). "I realized that Vietnamese people are very passionate about pickleball. This sport has only been developed in Vietnam for about a year, but I just visited a pickleball court in Ho Chi Minh City that is much more beautiful than courts in the US. That is the foundation to show that Vietnam is on the right track," Ben Johns shared.
