Bio:

​

Aldo Manriquez is a 20 year old pickleball player from Los Barriles, Baja California Sur.

​

If anyone in Mexico has more speed and explosiveness on the cancha than Aldo Manriquez, we have not seen him. Aldo plays with an incredible mix of unmatched speed, quickness, creativity, and technique. His forehand drives are strong and low, he easily covers side to side at the net, and never think you have won a point against him because you will see him sliding across the court to get to a typically unreachable ball. Manriquez is virtually unbeatable in singles; his strong serve, combined with perfectly placed and speedy forehand and backhand drives, ability to cover the entire court, and relentless determination make your only chance of beating him in singles is when he makes uncharacteristic mistakes. Aldo's doubles game is equally heralded. His biggest fault in doubles might be the fact that he enjoys singles too much and can occasionally try to cover too much ground. Aldo gets to the kitchen equally well with drives and drops, uses creative and well placed dinks, and will put away any mistake with his forehand or backhand. He is getting very good at Ernes, and can recover from any mistakes he or his partner make. All of this aside, what makes Aldo stand above the rest is his high competitiveness, love for the sport, and tireless motor.
