Sometimes I think us pro players forget how much we love playing Pickleball. When the sport becomes your career and a business, it’s easy to get caught up in the logistics and forget how much fun it is to play. Win or lose, don’t forget to enjoy yourself on court.

- Pickleball is not just for ‘old people’. It’s for ALL people. And I think everyone should give it a try (cause I think you’ll love it)
- Anna Leigh, I can't express enough how grateful I am for the time we've spent together on the court. From the laughter to the hard-fought matches, every moment has been unforgettable. You’ve pushed me to grow as a player, and I’m so thankful for our partnership.
- Petition for Pickleball to have its own emoji! (The ping pong one doesn’t cut it lol)
- Pickleball is just one of those sports that you can’t help but become obsessed with. Once you start, you just can’t stop
- Tennis players who start playing Pickleball are always better at singles first. Doubles is a completely different game, and anyone who thinks tennis players are going to come in and take over doubles in pickleball is in for a surprise. Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk ✅
- I hear a lot of people don’t like the sound of Pickleball (as in the sound of the ball hitting the paddle) but I don’t get it cause it’s like music to my ears lol
- I love seeing people try Pickleball and ending the day with “Yeah I get the hype” … welcome to the club haha
- Coachella looked like a blast… but I’m just out here waiting for someone to throw a pickleball festival with courts, music, and good vibes. Picklechella, anyone?
- One thing I’ll never understand is the tension/competition between tennis and Pickleball. They are both great sports, and are unique in their own way. You don’t have to hate one to love the other. Enjoy the game, both of them!!
- One of my favorite things about Pickleball (beyond how fun it is to play) is the community. When you meet someone who loves Pickleball as much as you, there’s an natural bond there that you wouldn’t find otherwise.
- Pickleball isn’t just a game—it’s a community. I feel so lucky to call this my career!
- Only a matter of time before Pickleball is an Olympic sport too! 👀🏓🇨🇦
