So you touch the ball, the ball being hit through the air. Does the virus ( 1- 10,000 change it did get on the ball) stick like magnet?

Haven’t heard of one case of pickleball or tennis player that caught the virus from playing? Much higher chance going into store or walking/standing by people you don’t know.

As long as they take precautions like wipe ball, wipe hands, wipe paddle before you enter the court, don’t French kiss anyone, stick you’re fingers in you’re mouth, lick the ball.

Can’t be shut down for ever. USTA has all ready released opinions on playing in non hot spot areas.

Now will they provide balls, water, and or back to league play with large groups not likely for month or more. There NO reason not let outdoor activities start back up.

If not then, golf needs to be shut down.
