Vietnamese pickleball star Quang Duong is putting singles in the spotlight with an open singles tournament, targeted for September or October 2025 in Vietnam. The headline: a winner-take-all men’s pro purse of $50,999.99.
Two divisions, one big carrot
The event features a Men’s Pro Open (winner takes every dollar) and an Amateur Open with about $5,000 in prize money. Singles rewards first-strike serves, deep returns, and ruthless passing shots—perfect for specialists and athletic all-courters alike.
Quang Duong is inviting community input on the host city—Hanoi, Da Nang, Nha Trang, or Ho Chi Minh City. Share your preference in the comments to help set the venue.
Women’s pro on the table
A Women’s Pro Open could be added if interest is strong. Players and fans are encouraged to register support so the bracket can be green-lit.
Why this matters
Winner-take-all formats crank up the pressure and the spectacle. Planting that model in Vietnam signals a bold push for elite-level pickleball in Asia, with a structure that can attract international pros and energize local clubs at the same time.
Have a say in how this takes shape: add your city choice—Hanoi, Da Nang, Nha Trang, or Ho Chi Minh City—in the comments. If you want a women’s singles bracket, register your interest there as well. Whether you’re pro or amateur, the court is calling.
As Quang Duong put it, “All are welcome to see beautiful Vietnam and collect the biggest single prize money.”
