The mental toughness of Ben Johns to win the last 6 points of the game and win the match is impressive.
Nasty forehands at the end by Ben. Great match

Especially the single-handed backhand ATP was amazing.
Sitting next to his dad listening to him cuss him out in Vietnamese at the end of the match is wild. Hard not to feel bad for the kid seeing him tear up at the end, but maybe thats just the coaching style that works for their relationship

I have a lot of questions: You sat next to his dad? Can we see you in the video? LOL You speak Vietnamese? I’ve seen comments like this about their relationship but I never see any about ALW and her mom who’s publicly stated she says mean spirited things to get ALW going. I wonder why that is….
Ben Johnson; is aCool; composed; quiet dynamic young man pleasure to watch him play.. entertaining..

Wow, awesome, Ben.
Quong is young and quickly getting better. At this pace, he'll overtake Ben soon.

Maybe, but I doubt he could have played any better in this match.
Quang always plays out of his mind vs Ben. Was painting the baseline with returns for awhile. He choked away match point a couple of times man. His drives are so good he could’ve taken some heat off them at the end.
Ben got his get back. He looked solid, and Quang has some sick patterns!
great contrast of styles. great game!
Great job Ben!
Commentators glazing for ben is wild
I wish Quang Duong win Vizzy Atlanta Open champion 2025. He will vs Jack Sock at final.
Quang has only one style - hard, fast, hard and fast. Ben is the complete package - he can be athletic and hard game and delicate and the soft game. Great job Ben!!!

Quang beat Ben on the majority of the cat and mouse games. My boy Quang is better than Ben, he just choked at the end of game three. I like Ben but Style Bender is the future of sport.

@@PhilProfEdwardschoking at the end is part of not being better yet. There were stretches where Quang looked like the far superior player, but truthfully he’s probably just the better athlete. Ben was wayyyy off his normal game today. That part was obvious. A standard deviation below his normal play and he still found a way. I like Quang too but we have to be objective about what we see.

I just got in to pickleball and wow great match. Learning a lot from these pros Ben with the come back to win.
To see a player *redline* for the whole match (Duong) is impressive. Good win for Ben, who played under control 85% of the match.
Great comeback !
Quang is 17 yrs old? Dayum… close games! Great job to both! Quang is gonna be a menace

He's 18 and is already a menace. His shot-making skills are the best.
Ben Johns still the best!
It was strange to hear clapping while Duong was setting up to serve.
heartbreaker of a loss...I hope Quong can recover. Keep going man!
At 6:10 one of the announcers mentions how Quang is constantly looking over at the bench, speculating that something’s wrong. I’ve noticed that in every game he plays, though. Watch him - he looks over after nearly every shot.

@@SanityReigns-pz8qh a) I don’t know who he’s looking at for sure, b) don’t know if, as you say, no coaching is allowed outside of timeouts, though I will assume you are correct there, and c) don’t know what constitutes coaching. I haven’t seen any cameras directed toward whoever Quang is looking at but would like to know if any signaling seems to be going on, or is it just “encouragement”? Clapping, saying “You got this”, etc? And, again, don’t know if coaches are allowed to signal anything. Maybe they can. Lots of conjecture. Just wanted to comment that I’ve seen it every match I’ve watch him play. It’s so regular, it began to really stand out to me. Amazing shots from Quang against Johns, and incredible mental strength from Johns (and, of course, play) to pull out the win.

I'm pretty sure it's spelled wrong. Who the hell is Dong?
I've said this before in another one of Quong's matches. If he just added a little more soft game, I think that would help him. He's currently at 90% hard game...maybe 80/20 would be better.
What's their record this year (Duong vs B.Johns)? 2-2, i believe.
It seemed to me It changed when Ben failed to hit a ball out of the air, in the middle of game three. After that, he took several out of the air for winners. crazy good by both.
Ben just showed us why is the #2 singles player in the world

Singles in points, but he has dominated Fed.
38:10 the announcer said SACK instead of Sock 😂
crazy how little quangnathan is the only one who can make ben sweat, and how ben is seed 2 even though federico has never even made it close before against ben. the only way federico has won a tournament in the last few years has been when quang knocked out ben or ben didnt participate.
Quang couldn't have played a better match than he did in this one, and he still lost. However, his shot-making is the best in the sport.
Con, Sir Ben!!

The sharp exhale as you uncoil your core through a stroke is a core tennet of any racquet sport. The sharpness can be exaggerated with sound for consistency. Soooo....I think the moans will probably stay.....for scientific reasons

@@BlGSac They tried to ban it in tennis, but didn't have the cajones to follow through. Forceful expelling of air does not need to result in a drawn out grunt. That came about in tennis very much as a borderline distraction, cover the ball-strike sound, tactic.

As Ben ages and his skills fade, he is going to transform into the biggest baby whiner in pro sports.

Because more people are casually playing pickleball, there is less need for athleticism so people who aren’t in pristine shape can play and compete pretty well, the learning curve isn’t as high (it’s easier to be competitive at a casual level in pickleball than in tennis), the courts are smaller so you can fit more in a given area thus more people can play concurrently, need I go on? Why don’t you ask yourself why you’re trying to prevent people from playing a fun casual sport?
Ready for Ben Johns to be done… such a boring style, the new high energy players will take over soon!
