About 2024 Pickleball Slam
Over the past handful of years, the sport of pickleball — seemingly a combination of tennis and full-scale ping pong — has become a sensation around the United States and the world, reportedly becoming the fastest-growing sport in the world. For the second year in a row, ESPN is bringing together some of the biggest names in tennis to try their hand at its younger cousin.
John McEnroe and Maria Sharapova, as well as real-life married superstars Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf will first step onto the court with tennis champions Jack Sock and James Blake before taking the training wheels off and facing each other in a match that will pay out $1 million.
ESPN is taking this event very seriously, as they will be bringing in some of their best tennis commentators. Chris Fowler, Andy Roddick, and Michele McMahon will be on hand to call the action, with Camryn Irwin reporting courtside.
