This essay sheds light on how pickleball became a global sports phenomenon, explicates how pickleball changed people's lives, and expounds upon how to earn revenue as a pickleball player. Pickleball was able to achieve the stupendous feat of becoming a global sports phenomenon amid the 21st century even though this feat transpired decades after its incipience. Even though "pickleball was invented in 1965", it did not become a global sports phenomenon in the 20th century, but rather became a global sports phenomenon amid the 2000s. There are a myriad of disparate reasons as to why pickleball was able to become a global sports phenomenon during the 21st century. One reason as to why pickleball was able to become global sports phenomenon during the 21st century was attributed to there being a significant amplification in the quantity of pickleball courts around the world amid the 21st century. For instance, "USA Pickleball reported a +15.6% growth in the number of pickleball courts nationwide, going from 38,140 courts in 2021 to 44,094 courts in 2022". The inordinate amplification in the quantity of pickleball courts around the world amid the 21st century has rendered pickleball far more accessible to athletes from around the world during the 21st century than it was during the 20th century. It is more seamless for athletes to profusely play pickleball in contexts in which pickleball courts are easily accessible to athletes from around the world than it is for them to do so when pickleball courts are relegated to distant venues. Athletes often prefer to not drive to distant venues to play sports. It is a brobdingnagian inconvenience for an athlete to drive to distant venues to play sports. Furthermore, it can also be expensive for an athlete drive to distant venues to play sports. Moreover, certain athletes have an aversion to driving cars on the roadways. Another reason as to why pickleball was able to become a global sports phenomenon during the 21st century was attributed to an exorbitant amount of pickleball videos attaining viral video status on social media platforms amid the 21st century. Users of social media platforms who are fond of pickleball revel in watching videos of professional pickleball matches on social media platforms. Videos of professional pickleball matches on social media platforms can expeditiously be shared by users on social media platforms. Furthermore, videos of professional pickleball matches on social media platforms have not only amplified global awareness of pickleball as a professional competitive sport among users of social media platforms, but have also enticed more athletes to dabble into playing pickleball. Social media platforms were brought to fruition during the 21st century. Users of social media platforms from around the world are able to access social media platforms remotely via their smartphones, tablets, and computers. Users of social media platforms from around the world are also metaphorically mentally entrenched on social media platforms for ample time everyday. As of January of 2024, users of social media platforms on average expend "2 hours and 31 minutes daily" on social media platforms. As of May of 2024, over five billion people from around the world are metaphorically mentally entrenched on social media platforms which means that more than 61% of the current global human population are metaphorically mentally entrenched on social media platforms. The size of the global human population is projected to exceed 8,600,000,000 people by 2030. As long as smartphone adoption rates significantly increase, broadband internet connection adoption rates significantly amplify, and the global human population further significantly amplifies by 2030, then the global social media user base will further significantly amplify in the coming years. As of May of 2024, it is estimated that 75.3% of the global human population will be utilizing social media platforms by 2027. As of May of 2024, it is also estimated "that the global social media user base" will reach over 7,000,000,000 social media users by 2028. Another reason as to why pickleball was able to become a global sports phenomenon during the 21st century is attributed to pickleball being a low-impact sport that is simple to learn and easy to play. Pickleball can be played by people who are in dire need of exercise and who have compromised mobility. As a low-impact sport, playing pickleball is often significantly "less strenuous on the joints" than playing certain other sports, such as "tennis, soccer, football, or basketball". People are often far more amenable to playing low-impact sports than playing high-impact sports. Playing low-impact sports often bears a lower injury risk than playing high-impact sports. Furthermore, playing low-impact sports is often less energy depleting than playing high-impact sports.
