Andre Agassi sealed the Pickleball Slam and a sum of $1m alongside Andy Roddick on Sunday evening in Hollywood in a tournament which saw John McEnroe also involved as their rivalry returned in a different discipline.
Asked if he would continue to play the new sport after being involved, he compared it to a tennis retirement home.
"100% guys. I never thought I was gonna say this, but I am playing this as long as I can walk. I can't wait to get back out there. Pickleball is where tennis players go to die," said Agassi.
Who is next though to play? Could Bjorn Borg be interested in the sport?
