The third installment of the Pickleball Slam will be broadcast live on ESPN, featuring Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf.

The third installment of the Pickleball Slam is scheduled to be broadcast on ESPN. This event will once again include tennis legends such as Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf playing in the new racquet sport for a prize pool of one million dollars.

Additionally, Andy Roddick and Eugenie Bouchard are competing in this event.

The event is scheduled to take place on February 16 at the Michelob Ultra Arena, which is located within the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas.

“Pickleball’s rising importance in the realms of sports and advertising is highlighted by the spike in participation, sponsorship funding, and media coverage that the sport has had in recent years. According to David Levy, Co-CEO of Horizon Sports & Entertainment, “The Pickleball Slam plays a pivotal role in this growth, showcasing the sport’s expanding appeal.” The Pickleball Slam has top players, dynamic locales, and ESPN coverage.

“Against the vibrant backdrop of Las Vegas, Slam 3 promises to deliver an experience that will be unforgettable for both sponsors and fans alike, and we can’t wait for everyone to witness the unparalleled excitement and spectacle that this event has to offer.”

In the mixed doubles competition, Agassi and Graf, who won the second Pickleball Slam, will compete against Roddick and Bouchard. In the forthcoming competition, Agassi and Roddick, who collaborated on the inaugural Grand Slam, will be playing against one another.

In a statement, Agassi said, “I can’t wait to return with Steffi and defend our title in February at Slam 3.” A statement was released by Agassi. “It is an incredible opportunity to play in my hometown of Las Vegas, where the stakes are high and the energy is electric,” said the player. I almost feel sorry for Andy and Genie since the odds are always in our favor in this city, and I am almost a little bit sad for them.Roddick continued by saying, “When Andre and I won the first Pickleball Slam, I ended up doing the majority of the heavy lifting, so this time I’m excited to team up with Genie.” Steffi is a formidable opponent, and I am actually more anxious about her for Slam 3, because she is a formidable opponent! I am prepared to go against the odds, and so is Genie. When everything is said and done, this is Las Vegas, a city that is well-versed in the art of dealing with unexpected surprises.

ESPN was able to attract a significant number of viewers to both the first Pickleball Slam and the second Slam.

The first Pickleball Slam, which took place in 2023, achieved a record for being the pickleball telecast with the biggest ratings in the history of the network, reaching its maximum point with approximately 800,000 viewers. Slam 2 had its highest point with more than 990,000 viewers in February of 2024.

“Over the past few years, pickleball has energized sports fans all over the world, and we are thrilled to have the opportunity to bring this incredible event to Mandalay Bay in 2025,” said Lance Evans, senior vice president of sports and sponsorships for MGM Resorts International. When it comes to showcasing Las Vegas as the Sports Capital of the World, we are excited to collaborate with David Levy and his crew, as well as these outstanding sports superstars.
