Carvana Delivers Big, Adds Two Vehicles to the PPA Tour’s Impressive 2023 Prize Package

Leading Online Auto Retailer to Award Vehicles to the Champions in Female and Male Categories at the End of the Season

Carvana, an industry pioneer for buying and selling used cars online, announced two marquee additions to the 2023 tournament prize payouts today at the commencement of the Carvana Grand Slam in Arizona. The 2023 Carvana Professional Pickleball Association (PPA) Tour already features the largest single-season prize purse in professional pickleball at $5.5 million, but now the innovative online retailer has upped the ante with the addition of vehicles being awarded to the male and female champions at the end of the season. Driving happiness on and off the court, Carvana will be sending both of this year’s top players home in a vehicle of their choice from Carvana.com.
