There are few things Rachel Stuhlmann can't do with a racquet. Or more accurately, Stuhlmann has made lots of money and garnered lots of attention because of her love of tennis. But she is proving to be more than just an influencer and model. She actually plays the game.

By all accounts, she plays it well, too. Now, she's trying her hand at pickleball, and not just any pickleball. She's going pro.
"It's been both challenging and very fun training for my first professional pickleball tournament," she recently posted to X. "I've loved getting back into competition mode!"

She made the announcement of her new journey last month. "Guys it's official,' she wrote. "I'm playing my first pro pickleball tournament in a few weeks."
Of course, Stuhlmann doesn't need to go pro in pickleball to also go viral. She can do that just by posting a pic of herself and saying "Hi," as was the case in September.
Seriously. That was enough. A simple hello, along with a picture of Stuhlmann holding a racquet while leaning on the net.

That came just two days after another viral Stuhlmann post. For that one, all she wrote was "Good morning."
"It's serve bot season," Stuhlmann captioned the reel on Instagram. More than 1,600 likes and about 50 comments followed.
Stuhlmann, who has added "pickleball influencer" to her bio, recently wrote about the ESPYs and that, too, was a splash. More specifically, she posted about ESPYs host and tennis legend Serena Winters.
She generally breaks out the announcements when she's excited about or attending an event. (And her fans are glad she does.)
Once she arrived, perhaps she said something earth-shattering. You know, like, "hi."
