After ending his tennis career, he switched to pickleball and is now active on the PPA Tour and in MLP.

Career and record

On the PPA Tour he plays each event as a top seed, and in MLP he belongs to the Phoenix Flames. In the 2025 MLP season his keeper cost was set at $275,000 (tied for 2nd behind Ben Johns), proving his high market value.
