Roscoe Bellamy is World #5 in men's singles, owns 6 PPA Tour medals, and is on the short list of pros who legitimately played top-tier tennis before switching codes.
Career
The former #1 U.S. junior tennis player, Bellamy played at UCLA before turning pro on the tennis side. The switch to pickleball came after he won the ESPN Pickleball Slam — a celebrity-format event where he beat Andre Agassi and Andy Roddick in successive matches.
His first PPA Tour title came in a three-set thriller over #2 seed Hunter Johnson (11-9, 5-11, 11-3). He plays the Luzz Glider — the same brand recently chosen by World #1 Chris Haworth.
Playing style
Right-handed. Powerful serve and forehand, hands quickly enough to match the kitchen-speed game of the younger players. The tennis pedigree shows most in his return-of-serve depth, which sets up his third-shot drive.
