From the statuesque Bryony Gordon at the Daily Mail, talking about padel:
“The game has always struck me as tennis for those who can’t be bothered to learn tennis, but given our dwindling attention spans, it’s probably the perfect sport for our age.”
I always thought it was a cross between tennis (court and scoring system ), squash (playing off the walls) and table tennis (the bats).
It’s also gentler, takes up less space, and doesn’t require as much exertion as tennis or squash. It really is the perfect non-sport for our silly age — which means it’s soon going to become an Olympic event. (#SynchronizedSwimming)
“yeah, but why do you call Bryony Gordon ‘statuesque’, Kim?”
