PGA Tour stars Jordan Spieth and Scottie Scheffler put their golf clubs away in exchange for paddles Thursday night as they competed in an exhibition match for the Pro Pickleball Association.
Their opponents are also well-known in the sports world for their talents and also for being extremely tall. Retired NBA legend Dirk Nowitzki partnered up with tennis pro John Isner to play against the golfers. Nowitzki is seven-feet tall, as Isner stands at 6’10”.
Pickleball, which combines aspects of tennis, badminton and ping-pong on outdoor badminton-sized courts, has taken the country by storm.
