In the Hyundai Masters in Palm Springs, former Olympic gold medalist Jack Sock upset world No. 4 Connor Garnett, marking an impressive start to his pickleball career.

The 31-year-old recently said that he would retire from professional tennis after the US Open in 2023, but he has had a strong start in the pickleball division, defeating Garnett in the quarterfinals with a score of 4-11, 11-9, 11-2.

Sock eventually fell against Federico Staksrud in the semifinals, despite going on to overcome Jay Devilliers in the match that went to the final eight. Sock had a rather successful career as a professional tennis player, taking home six ATP titles.

This is the reason he was able to rank eighth in 2017, which was a career-high. His Grand Slam results are not very impressive, as he was never able to advance past the quarterfinals in any of the major competitions.
