This week’s episode takes on one of Gina’s favorite topics: the delusional player. You know the type: the ones signing up for pro brackets without a shot at qualifying, the 3.5s decked out in flashy gear, or the players asking if they “have what it takes to go pro” while treating others with a sense of entitlement.Gina and Neil talk about the fine line between confidence and ego, how fragile egos can keep players from improving, and why humility and honest feedback matter more than inflated ratings. Gina shares a story about playing with someone who claimed a 4.0 DUPR but couldn’t get past no man’s land, and Neil explains how feedback and playing up can help players actually grow instead of staying stuck in delusion.This conversation isn’t about tearing people down. It’s about recognizing reality, embracing competition, and learning from losses with a clear head.🎧 Sponsored by VKTRY Performance Insoles👟 The only insoles scientifically proven to help you play better, recover faster, and stay injury-free.Shop here: https://rstr.co/vktrygear/empowerpickleball👇 Follow + subscribe: Website → https://www.empowerpickleball.com Instagram → @empowerpickleball TikTok → @empowerpickleball
