Meet David Iba: The Pickleball Prodigy with a Self-Described Nerdy Twist. Hailing from the bustling streets of New York City, David Iba brings a unique blend of skill, determination, and an irresistible personality to the world of pickleball. At the age of 36, he has emerged as a rising star in the tristate area's pickleball scene, capturing hearts and victories along the way.

​

David's journey to the top hasn't been a smooth ride. He's proven his mettle on the cracked, decrepit basketball courts and playgrounds that served as his pickleball training grounds. These less-than-ideal conditions only fueled his competitive spirit, propelling him towards greatness.

​

Before conquering the pickleball court, David made waves as a tennis player at the prestigious MIT. His mathematical background has endowed him with a keen eye for angles, a skill that he masterfully applies to his pickleball strategy. A self-described nerd, David unabashedly indulges in guilty pleasures like watching "The Bachelor," – a connection that aligns perfectly with the fact that Clayton, the famed Season 26 Bachelor himself, is hosting the Pickleball Paddle Battle.

​

David's claim to fame extends beyond pickleball. With lightning-fast hands honed through years of competitive table tennis, he brings a level of finesse to the game that leaves opponents stunned. His dedication to mastering his craft shines through as he seamlessly translates his ping pong prowess to the pickleball court.

In Season One of Pickleball Paddle Battle, follow David's attempted quest for victory, and get ready to witness the rise of a pickleball sensation who's redefining what it means to be a true competitor.
