March 2025 Tournament

Letter from Bob Raynor

Tunnel to Towers Tampa Bay Tournament

"The above photo shows Zeke proudly holding his new Gaba paddle— I’m Bob Raynor, the player on the right with my hand on his shoulder. I had the honor of presenting it to him during the opening introductions. Reading your letter aloud, Zeke was truly moved—his eyes filled with tears.

We had 220 pickleball players and a great crowd for the exhibition, which I had the privilege of emceeing.

Also pictured are T2T Board Member Jack Oehm and Tournament Director Tom McDonough, both of whom were deeply impressed by your personal involvement and touched by your recognition of Zeke, whom they’ve worked closely with for the past three years.

My partner and I earned a silver in Men’s Doubles."
