The APP Tour lands in downtown Cincinnati for the Vlasic Classic, a four-day tournament at Sawyer Point right on the Ohio River. This one doubles as a USA Pickleball Golden Ticket event — meaning amateur brackets earn qualifying berths to the 2026 USAP National Championships. If you have been thinking about entering a Golden Ticket tournament, the drive from Rochester is doable in a day.
