Andre Agassi, teniska legenda, i Anna Leigh Waters, mlada zvijezda pickleballa, stvorili su neobi\u010dan par kako bi nastupili na US Open Pickleball Championships u Napulju. Njihov cilj nije bio samo pobijediti, ve\u0107 i pomo\u0107i u promociji pickleballa, sporta koji brzo dobiva na popularnosti.<\/em><\/p>\n

Iako ih dijele gotovo \u010detiri desetlje\u0107a, povezala ih je zajedni\u010dka strast prema pickleballu i \u017eelja da u njega privuku nove obo\u017eavatelje. Dana 29. travnja, dan prije njihovog televizijskog debija na US Openu, a ujedno i na Agassijev 55. ro\u0111endan, odr\u017eana je konferencija za novinare na kojoj su legendarni tenisa\u010d i pickleball \u010dudo od djeteta podijelili svoju viziju budu\u0107nosti ovog sporta.<\/p>\n

“Tenisa\u010di i pickleball igra\u010di vole raspravljati koji je sport bolji,” rekla je 18-godi\u0161nja Waters, prva na svijetu u \u017eenskom pickleballu.<\/strong><\/em> “Ali vjerujemo da oba sporta mogu koegzistirati. Nadamo se da \u0107e obo\u017eavatelji pickleballa, tenisa, kao i fanovi Andrea i mene, gledati na\u0161 me\u010d \u2014 i mo\u017eda \u0107e netko tko nikad nije igrao pickleball po\u017eeljeti probati.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Agassi, kojem je ovo bio prvi profesionalni nastup u pickleballu, priznao je da mu je u\u010denje novog sporta bilo kao vo\u017enja na rollercoasteru. “Osje\u0107am unutarnji konflikt: je li ovo zabava ili tjeskoba?” podijelio je.<\/strong> “Sigurno mnogi moji kolege tenisa\u010di jedva \u010dekaju vidjeti kako \u0107u se spektakularno posramiti.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Waters, koja je debitirala na US Openu sa samo 11 godina uz svog djeda, jo\u0161 uvijek ne mo\u017ee vjerovati da ima priliku igrati s Agassijem. Ideja o partnerstvu do\u0161la je nakon \u0161to je vidjela YouTube video na kojem teniska legenda igra pickleball te mu se odlu\u010dila obratiti.<\/p>\n

“Tijekom na\u0161eg prvog razgovora, pri\u010dao je sa mnom kao da se znamo ve\u0107 pet godina,” prisje\u0107a se Waters. “U\u010dinio je da se osje\u0107am ugodno. Tada sam prvi put pomislila da bi ovo moglo uspjeti. Trebalo ga je jo\u0161 samo uvjeriti da zaigra sa mnom! Mama i ja smo gledale njegovu igru na YouTubeu i rekle: ‘Ima sve \u0161to treba. Bit \u0107e tako zabavno! Jedva \u010dekam!'”<\/p>\n

Agassi je izjavio kako mu odluka da se pridru\u017ei Waters na US Openu nije bila te\u0161ka: “U nekim stvarima sam dobar, a neke me \u010dine nervoznim. No ovdje mogu ra\u010dunati na najboljeg igra\u010da na terenu koji \u0107e me pokriti.”<\/p>\n

Agassi, koji je sa 18 godina bio tre\u0107i tenisa\u010d svijeta, pohvalio je Waters zbog njenih postignu\u0107a u pickleballu. “Ima 18 godina i ve\u0107 se dugo dr\u017ei ispred svih, unato\u010d tome \u0161to je svi poku\u0161avaju dosti\u0107i\u2026 To pokazuje koliko dobro radi svoj posao,” naglasio je.<\/p>\n

Iako bi pobjeda u mje\u0161ovitim parovima na US Openu svakako bila veliki uspjeh njihovog partnerstva, Agassi se nada jo\u0161 ve\u0107em postignu\u0107u.<\/p>\n

Pri\u010da o Andreu Agassiju i Anni Leigh Waters nagla\u0161ava kako je pickleball sport otvoren za sve uzraste i razine iskustva. On spaja igra\u010de, poti\u010de suradnju izme\u0111u tenisa i pickleballa umjesto natjecanja, privla\u010di nove obo\u017eavatelje oba sporta te isti\u010de va\u017enost mentorstva, u kojem mladi sporta\u0161i u\u010de od iskusnih profesionalaca, koji pak pronalaze novu motivaciju i energiju.<\/p>\n

Dakle, bez obzira jeste li fan tenisa, pickleballa ili samo tra\u017eite novu aktivnost \u2013 pri\u010da Andree Agassija i Anne Leigh Waters mo\u017ee vas inspirirati na nove izazove. Mo\u017eda je sada pravo vrijeme da i vi probate pickleball?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
