This victory is not simply the result of a match. It is a testament to the spirit of constantly moving forward, to the bond between two generations of athletes: an experienced and courageous Do Minh Quan, an energetic and technically sharp Truong Vinh Hien. They represent the power of connection, the spirit of Sypik Team - where each match is a training journey, each victory is a milestone of maturity.
Just a week ago, at the Djoy tournament, they had a dramatic confrontation with the Ly Hoang Nam - Trinh Linh Giang pair, ending with a score of 1-2. However, that ups and downs did not overshadow their determination, on the contrary, it became the motivation for them to come back stronger, sharpening their tactics and fighting spirit. And in Lao Cai, they did it: a match of courage, confidence, full of emotions - both on the field and in the stands.

What is worth mentioning is not only the final score (Truong Vinh Hien and Do Minh Quan defeated the pair Ly Hoang Nam and Trinh Linh Giang with a large score of 15-7), but also the way they touched the hearts of the fans. Fans not only saw two players win, but also saw two people competing with all their passion, composure and perseverance. In each hit, each save, is the mark of a long process - a journey in which pickleball is no longer a "new sport ", gradually becoming a part of the sporting life of Vietnamese people.
Previously, the pair Truong Vinh Hien and Do Minh Quan had overcome extremely tough opponents in the Open event such as the pair Dat Tro - Trieu Cau Bung, a phenomenal pair of Vietnamese pickleball players, the pair Nicholas Khamphilath - Phuc Huynh, two players with extensive experience in international competitions.

Amidst the bustling atmosphere of Lao Cai on the night of May 23, when the entire stadium exploded with victory, many people saw not only a great match, but also the future of Vietnamese pickleball – full of promise, full of vitality, and gradually moving forward.
