I wish! The point of this thread is not to knock the accomplishment of Fedor, but to highlight that this trophy sucks for such a great accomplishment. The money will come and go, but I would rather not even get a trophy than have this one. Fedor will have a million dollar house some day and have to hang a $5 plaque on the wall. I have thrown away better looking trophies. They can do better...a lot better.But did your trophy come with a check for 25k?
I agree and I don’t think most care about anything but the cash. I don’t care about trophies and haven’t since I was a kid. That being said, if I was ever lucky enough to win an event like that I would keep it and display it proudly. There are something’s that are special like the superbowl or World Series. This is embarrassing imoI don’t think Fedor plays for the trophy. He probably a whole room full of them just collecting dust.
I’m sure he likes the cash and the recognition that comes with the title.
It does actually resemble APA Big Dawg plaques in our area!I wish!

Neither did his.But did your trophy come with a check for 25k?
...collecting dust in a box in the attic.Long after the cash is gone the trophy will remain.
Wow, but it still takes the sting out of getting that cheap trophy.Neither did his.
8500
Went to 10k....but Turning Stone pulled the carpeting..
So it's played on cement
Pool is a nightmare.
illustrates my point perfectly.Here is the trophy from the Del Ray Beach Pickleball Tournament...

Maybe someday Pool (billiards) will be as historic and popular as Pickleball....
Actually that is a monstrosity. How long would it be before a trophy that size became a huge nuisance? Then ending up it the garage loft to get it out of the way? Then the dumpster or a garage sale? I would skip it all and head it straight to the dumpster. House isn't big enough for all the crap i already have.illustrates my point perfectly.
With the money Fedro will make, he can afford a big house. Yes, that trophy is huge but it’s for pickleball. That’s the irony, isn’t it?Actually that is a monstrosity.
