Two legendary athletes, football star Tom Brady and four-time tennis Grand Slam winner Kim Clijsters, are joining the growing number of high-profile investors in Major League Pickleball.
Pickleball, a sport that combines aspects of tennis, badminton and ping-pong on outdoor badminton-sized courts, has been called the fastest-growing sport in the country. Major League Pickleball began play in 2021, and has already attracted some significant names from the sports world as investors.
Last month, it was announced that a group featuring LeBron James and his business partner Maverick Carter, Draymond Green and Kevin Love were investing in the league.
