VTV AO SMITH Pickleball Open 2025 officially closed after three days of exciting competition. With the participation of 700 athletes, 11 competition events and a total prize value of more than 1 billion VND, the tournament determined the first champions, affirming the position of pickleball in Vietnam's sports life.

One of the big surprises of the tournament was that Quang Duong combined with Xuan Hoa, and the pair Dat “tro” with Sophia Phuong Anh could not make it to the final of the Open mixed doubles. In this event, the duo Boi Ngoc – Van Phuong convincingly won the title when defeating Tran Quang Truong – Lien Ngo in the final.

In the most popular and attractive content for pickleball lovers, the Open Men's Doubles, it seemed like fans would witness a dream final match between the Quang Duong - Bao Duong brothers and Truong Vinh Hien - Minh Quan. Unfortunately, Quang Duong was injured and could not continue playing, meaning the championship of this content belonged to the Vinh Hien - Minh Quan couple.

This year’s tournament is also a playground for a generation of promising young athletes, typically the youngest pair Phuong Trang Anh (16 years old) and Pham Ngoc Ha Vy (13 years old). With flexible playing style, confidence and a desire to conquer, the two young players left a strong impression, becoming the next generation full of energy and potential of Vietnamese pickleball.
