Who's Leading the APP Tour Rankings in 2026?

Dink Authority Editorial Team

The APP Tour rankings are updated continuously throughout the season, reflecting each professional player's accumulated performance across every event. At the midpoint of the 2026 season, with several tournaments already in the books and a loaded second half ahead, four names stand at the top of their respective categories. Here are the current leaders — updated as of June 16, 2026.

Pro Women's Singles: Katerina Stewart — 5,600 Points

Katerina Stewart at the top of the women's singles ranking is not a surprise — it's a constant. The player has built a dominant season in singles, establishing herself as the most consistent figure on the APP circuit in the individual women's category. Her game combines remarkable defensive solidity with the ability to accelerate the pace at decisive moments that few rivals can match.

Stewart enters the second half of the season with the widest points lead among all category leaders — 5,600 points that speak to a consistent presence in the final rounds of every tournament. Defending that lead won't be easy: Sofia Sewing, who dominated the singles ranking for much of 2025 with 8 singles titles, is right behind her and hasn't let up.

Pro Men's Singles: Ronan Camron — 3,520 Points

This is the name that generates the most surprise at the top of the ranking — and also the most excitement. Ronan Camron is a young player, developed through the APP Next program, who won his first professional singles gold at the APP Mesa Open 2025 against a competitor of the caliber of Will Howells in the final. That result was no accident: Camron had come off two consecutive runner-up finishes and arrived in Mesa determined to close the chapter.

"The night before, I thought — third time's the charm. I had two silvers in singles and I wanted gold. I wanted the big trophy," he said after the victory.

Camron perfectly embodies what the APP Tour has built: a circuit that gives young players room to develop and reach the top through merit. With 3,520 points leading the men's singles ranking, the next chapter of his career is being written tournament by tournament.

Pro Women's Doubles: Megan Fudge — 6,320 Points

Megan Fudge is, simply put, the most decorated player in APP Tour history. The all-time career medals leader shows no signs of slowing down — on the contrary, she enters 2026 hungry for more records. Her 6,320 points in women's doubles make her the player with the most accumulated points among all category leaders, and the story behind that number is one of an athlete who has been consistent in every tournament, every format, with every partner.

Fudge has won doubles titles with multiple different partners throughout her career, which speaks not only to her technical level but to her ability to adapt and lead on the court. By 2025, she had accumulated 75 career medals — a number that was already historic. In 2026, she keeps adding.

Pro Men's Doubles: Richard Livornese Jr. — 5,420 Points

Richard Livornese Jr. is one of the most versatile players on the APP circuit. Present in both men's doubles and mixed doubles, Livornese has built his ranking with a consistency that places him above the field in the men's doubles individual category with 5,420 points.

His name has been associated with finals and medals across multiple tournaments this season, and his ranking position reflects what defines the best on the APP Tour: it's not enough to win one event — you have to show up everywhere, with any partner, under any conditions.

Pro Mixed Doubles: Jack Munro

Jack Munro is not a new name on the APP Tour — he is one of its most complete and consistent figures. The American player appears across multiple ranking categories, which speaks to his versatility and level of commitment to the circuit. In mixed doubles, Munro has built his position through consistent results with different partners, adapting to each context and proving that his game transcends individual categories. A presence the APP circuit knows well, and one that the second half of the season will put to the test once again.

What's Ahead

The second half of the 2026 APP season includes stops in Chicago, Detroit, Overland Park, Louisville, Arizona, and the Tour Championships in Fort Lauderdale in December — plus the historic launch of the APP Asia Tour with its first stop in Penang, Malaysia, July 22-26.

The rankings are alive. Today's positions guarantee nothing for tomorrow. And that, precisely, is what makes the APP Tour one of the most exciting professional pickleball circuits in the world.
