In a recent interview with the AP, Agassi revealed that he was introduced to Pickleball a few years ago when Roddick invited him to participate in a fundraising match.

However, to everyone’s surprise, Agassi quickly became hooked on Pickleball. He started playing with his children and found himself enjoying the game more and more with each match. Roddick, in a chat with People, shared that playing Pickleball has allowed him to reconnect with Agassi on a daily basis, as they discuss strategies and share tips with each other.

Even Roddick’s wife, actress Brooklyn Decker, has shown interest in Pickleball, giving it a try on the court. It seems like Pickleball has become a favorite pastime for the tennis greats and their families.

In exciting news, Andre Agassi is set to visit India in January 2025 to kick off the PWR DUPR Indian Tour & League, a grand pickleball tour that promises to bring the thrill of competitive pickleball to India.
