Necker Island 2026 🌴

Second time back here and blows you away every time! This place is absolute paradise! More importantly is the people you meet and the relationships you grow. It’s truly what life is all about. New friends, old friends, and everything in between, this week was one to remember!

Thank you so much to @case224 for the incredibly hard work to put this event together, alongside @barryallan299 , @nateparsons13 , @aquatichorizon @guendalina_buzzanca and everyone else on Necker that made it possible.

Until next time ✌️

Can’t forget who captured it all!

🤩🇺🇸GOOD MORNING AMERICA! 🤩🇺🇸

What an amazing day! So grateful for the opportunity to be on GMA and represent pickleball on such a big stage!

It’s been a crazy journey in pickleball making the decision to walk away from professional tennis 18 months ago, but so grateful for where it had lead us. The opportunities and experiences that have come from pickleball are unmatched!
Can’t thank @officialapptour enough for setting this up and giving us this platform!

Best group to share this with! @hunterjohnson_7 @itsparristodd @alixtruong

Down a game. Down match point. Still standing. 💪

No. 23 Yates Johnson saves a match point at 8–10 in the third, then wins four straight points to upset No. 6 Connor Garnett, 6–11, 11–5, 12–10, in the Round of 32 at the Rate Las Vegas Open presented by JOOLA.

Orange you glad the Orlando Squeeze added Pilates to their training? 🍊🏓

We had the team in the studio for a reformer workout, where there were plenty of laughs, a few shaky legs, and a great reminder that Pilates isn’t just a workout, it’s a performance tool.

From stronger cores to better balance, mobility, and control, Pilates helps athletes move more efficiently on and off the court.

Good luck to the @orlandosqueeze this weekend at ESPN Wide World of Sports. We’ll be cheering you on! 🤎
