Nathan Choi’s 2024 CNPL Struggles: A Season to Forget for Smash

Nathan Choi’s 2024 CNPL Struggles: Nathan Choi, a 30-year-old Canadian pickleball player, entered the 2024 season with high expectations after a strong showing in 2023. Drafted 20th overall and joining the Smash, Choi’s DUPR rating of 4.41 placed him in a competitive position. However, his performance this season has seen a notable dip compared to his impressive 2023 campaign with the Rush.

During the 2023 season, Choi excelled with the Rush, earning three Player of the Match awards. Over 11 matches, he tallied 312 points for and 270 points against, ending with a solid +1.9 differential. Choi won 15 out of 22 games, resulting in a remarkable 68.18% win rate. His contributions were pivotal in elevating the Rush’s competitive standing.

CNPL 2024: Struggles with Smash

The transition to Smash in 2024 has not been as smooth. Choi’s performance faltered, and despite playing 27 matches, he saw a significant decline in his stats. Scoring 967 points for and 1067 points against, his -1.9 differential highlights the struggles he faced this season. With a 35.19% win rate, securing only 19 wins out of 54 games, this season has been far from ideal for Choi compared to the previous year.
