PicklePod Ep 77: The rule changes tripping everyone up

by The Dink Media Team on

The progression draw has been met with some pushback. Some pros aren't fans of being pushed aside to make room for tennis superstars.

The new carry rule has players everywhere arguing and pulling out their rulebooks. Zane lays out his bold predictions including another new serve rule.
