Andre Agassi's legacy on the tennis court is no secret. He is a member of the International Tennis Hall of Fame, an eight-time Grand Slam winner, and one of the best in recent memory to ever step on the tennis court.
In 2006, Agassi retired from the game of tennis with an Olympic gold medal, 17 Masters titles and one of five in the Open Era to achieve the career Grand Slam in singles.
Agassi also spent 101 weeks as the No. 1 player in the ATP rankings.
Now, Agassi is making his post-tennis career into another headline. He is playing professional sports once again and is a pickleball player.
One day after his 55th birthday, Agassi won his professional pickleball debut with a victory in the mixed pro division at the U.S. Open Pickleball Championships, per ESPN.
Agassi's teammate is 18-year-old Anna Leigh Waters.

The event took place at East Naples Community Park in Florida, which is known as the pickleball capital of the world. So, even though Agassi is nearly two decades removed from tennis, he is still winning matches in professional sports in one of the up-and-coming games in the country.
