Career PPA titles coming into Sunday: Johns 96, Waters 74.
We have similar storylines in the men’s and women’s singles.
=== MEN’S SINGLES ===
The two winningest men’s singles players continue their rivalry. Ben Johns is the all-time men’s leader in Triple Crowns (17), and Tyson McGuffin “turned the triple” last week in Utah. In the last 12 months, they have met only twice in the finals: Johns won the Takeya Showcase and McGuffin won the Texas Open. Both of those events were last November. This year Johns has seven titles; McGuffin has three.
Bronze: (2) Federico Staksrud def. (12) Julian Arnold.
=== WOMEN’S SINGLES ===
The top two women’s singles players are in the final. Anna Leigh Waters has the most singles titles (28) and Triple Crowns (16). Catherine Parenteau is second on the wins list (9), and she earned her second career Triple Crown last week in Utah. Waters is 10-1 in the finals against Parenteau. Catherine’s sole win vs Waters in a final was in October 2021, but she also beat “A-L” in the semifinals of the Florida Open last March.
Bronze: (11) Jorja Johnson def. (5) Lauren Stratman.
Notable: Johnson def. (6) Yana Newell and (3) Mary Brascia.
