He’s leaving tennis behind and jumping into the exciting world of pickleball. But that’s not all; there’s another big piece of news in his life.

Jack and his wife, Laura, are getting ready to welcome a baby Sock into their family. The 30-year-old took to Instagram to share an update on the upcoming celebration that is on the way in the shape of a little baby boy!

Jack Sock’s transition from tennis to pickleball

Jack Sock’s decision to switch from tennis to pickleball shows how popular this sport has become. He’ll be teaming up with Sam Querrey, another former American tennis star, to compete on the PPA Tour, the leading pickleball league. This move follows in the footsteps of Ben Johns, a top pickleball player who reportedly earns around $250,000 each year.

The PPA Tour has been getting a lot of attention because they’ve made some great deals with TV networks like Amazon and ESPN. This means that lots of people all over the country can watch pickleball on their TVs. But what’s really groundbreaking is that the tour is now allowing people to bet on pickleball legally, which no other pickleball league in the United States has done before.
