Former world number one Andre Agassi has taken a dig at
American legend John McEnroe in a promotional video for the Pickleball Slam 2.

in February next year.

his wife Steffi Graff whereas McEnroe will team up with former world number one
Russia’s Maria Sharapova.

McEnroe and Maria Sharapova. What's happening? I hope you guys are looking
forward to Pickleball Slam 2,” he said. “I know I am. Maria we had a blast last
year, sorry you missed it.
"You would have saw me take John McEnroe and just drag
him to the bitter end, reach in and rip his heart out. And the fun part was he
blamed his partner the entire time. So you better bring your A-game.
"And Johnny Mac, I see what you've done. You've recruited
one of the game's most beloved legends. You think that's gonna help you? It
ain't going to help you because I've been doing some recruiting of my own, and
I want to introduce you to my partner Steffi Graf.

such a blast, I can only imagine we're gonna have a great, great time. So,
really looking forward to seeing you down at the Hardrock.”
