The Pickleball tournaments of the year. Three time BOTP cumulative gold medal winners (as a team in team events) and singles in singles events get prize money. After the 3rd time gold medal win in a particular event, they would have to move up to a higher skill level to win another 3 cumulative win prize. At 4.0+ events, they can win as many cumulative wins as possible, but must be only at that level, not a lower merged event (if that applies).
The BlackHATs (specific singles event gold medalists) take home the BlackHAT and have their names stamped on the records of battles won on the court.
