Robert Leonard

Robert grew up with a strong background playing tennis and paddle tennis, and started competing at the 5.0 level in 2021.

In 2022, he started playing Open Pro tournaments, but decided to change his career path after sustaining a nasty quad injury. He has been teaching for 4 years, and taught Kenny Loggins how to play!

He is a student of the game, dissecting both the micro and the macro, and is PPR certified. He excels at technical analysis of every shot, from the serve to the drop shot to the top spin roll, and everything in between.

Robert believes in purposeful pickleball: having a purpose for every shot, efficiently using every part of the body, and thinking not about ‘this’ shot, but always the next one.
