WPBL 2025: Chennai Super Champs Secure First Win Of Season Over Pune United

By IANS News January 29, 2025 • 21:30 PM View: 814

Chennai Super Champs: After days of near misses, Chennai Super Champs finally got the breakthrough, clinching their first tie victory in the World Pickleball League 2025 event with a well-earned 3-2 win over Pune United on Day 6 of the World Pickleball League.

The tie kicked off with an intense men’s singles battle between Pune’s William Sobek and Chennai’s Sonu Vishwakarma. Sonu displayed grit, keeping the contest tight at halftime, but Sobek’s perseverance proved decisive as he edged out a 16-13 win to give Pune an early lead. Chennai, however, quickly turned the tide in the women’s doubles. The introduction of a new pairing — Anna Patrimonio and Thaddea Lock—proved effective, as they achieved a strong second-half lead to claim a commanding 8-17 victory and level the tie at 1-1.

Momentum swung further in Chennai’s favour in the men’s doubles, where the experience of Etienne Blaszkewycz and Tanner Tomassi got the better of the young Pune duo - William Sobek and Vanshik Kapadia. In a gruelling battle, Chennai maintained their composure to secure a dominant 4-15 win, putting them ahead 2-1.
