Sofia Sewing Nets Triple Crown as Phuc Huynh Wins Leapmotor APP Open

Sofia Sewing completed a clean sweep at the Leapmotor APP Kuala Lumpur Open, winning women’s singles, women’s doubles with Megan Fudge, and mixed doubles with Casey Diamond across the finals weekend of Feb 14-16, 2026 in Kuala Lumpur. PickleballNow captured the weekend in one line: “Three finals, three gold medals, one defining weekend. Sofia Sewing ruled the inaugural Leapmotor APP Kuala Lumpur Open.”

Vietnam’s Phuc Huynh claimed the men’s singles pro title with a straight-games win over Hong Kong’s Jack Wong Hong-kit, 11-3, 11-7, closing the final decisively on Feb 16. Huynh reached the title match after a three-game semifinal victory over Ryler DeHeart, 11-7, 11-13, 11-5, while Wong-kit earned his final berth by dispatching Ronan Camron 11-3, 11-8 in the other semi. Camron recovered to take bronze, blanking DeHeart 11-0, 11-2 in the consolation match. A winner photo was credited to Phuc Huynh on Facebook.

Sewing’s Triple Crown underlined the weekend’s headline act. Reports list Sewing as world No. 1 on the APP Tour and show her partnering with Megan Fudge to win women’s doubles and Casey Diamond to win mixed doubles. Crownpickleball noted that the women’s singles final pitted Sewing against Kat Stewart and that “Stewart had the advantage after game one, but then it was all Sewing in games two th...” The available coverage does not publish a final game score for Sewing’s singles match, though multiple outlets described Sewing’s performance as dominant across the three finals.

Men’s doubles gold went to Jack Munro and Ryan Fu; Crownpickleball described Munro and Fu as a first-time partnership that captured the title. Social and feed coverage from PickleballNow and a Facebook post by Jangbir Singh listed the weekend podiums: Phuc Huynh gold, Jack Wong Hong-kit silver, Ronan Camron bronze in men’s singles, and Sewing’s sweep across the women’s events.

The tournament was presented by most outlets as the APP Tour’s first major appearance in Southeast Asia and was repeatedly called the inaugural Leapmotor APP Kuala Lumpur Open. One recap used different nomenclature, referring to the event as an inaugural Global Pickleball Alliance event in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, a discrepancy that the weekend’s coverage noted without reconciling the sanctioning terminology. PickleballNow framed the men’s final as an all-Asia matchup that “signal[s] a shifting balance of power on the global stage,” a line that captures the broader takeaway from Feb 14-16: Asian players delivered headline results while Sewing reinforced her top-ranked status with an event-defining triple win.
