Former ATP star Andy Roddick recently issued a stern warning against the American legend Andre Agassi. Roddick lashed out after being dumped by his pickleball partner. He expressed sadness over being abandoned and therefore, hilariously spoke out against Agassi.

Scheduled to be played in Los Angeles, Roddick, and Eugenie Bouchard are currently gearing up to face off against Andre Agassi and his wife Steffi Graf at the Pickleball Slam 3. The four tennis greats will battle not just to seek revenge but for a massive $1 Million paycheck.

Ahead of the event, the official Instagram page of Pickleball Slam shared a video in which Roddick made his frustration clear about Agassi's abandonment.

"This day was always coming, as soon as Andre dumped me from the winning team. Like, who wins and then gets dumped? I guess me, even worse when it's by your idol. So, I'm coming for him! There's no escape now! Andre's stamina obviously isn't what it once was. I think he legally collects social security now," he said.

Andre Agassi and Andy Roddick also teamed up for a doubles competition at the Cincinnati Open in 2024. Although in an exhibition showdown, the duo cherished glory, which made the 42-year-old feel betrayed and eventually opt for revenge at the Pickleball Slam 3.

Andy Roddick appeared to be worried about letting his doubles partner down against the reigning champions Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf. Looking forward to competing against the dynamic couple, the 42-year-old expressed concerns aout his performance with a pickleball racket.

"I worry the most about myself on the court. Like, I've literally played with a pro. We have to win; otherwise...it's on me. It's very squarely on my shoulders. Genie, I hope I live up to the very tiny expectations you have for my pickleball ability," he said.

Scheduled to be played at the Michelob ULTRA Arena at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, the Pickleball Slam 3 holds heavy anticipation from fans. With the previous year's champions Agassi and Graf ready to defend the crown, the debut competitors Andy Roddick and Eugenie Bouchard have a tough challenge lined up against them.

The sport has quickly gained traction in the United States and has majorly lured former tennis pros to show their athleticism once again. The event will commence on February 16 and can be streamed live on the ESPN network.
