Irina Tereschenko

Irina Tereschenko’s pickleball career began with a challenge. In 2015, pickleball legend Chris Miller flew her out to the Tournament of Champions to compete. He knew Irina had played tennis at Texas Tech, and he was confident she’d win and pay him back for the flights. That’s exactly what she did. And she’s been hooked on the game ever since. She now dominates pickleball tournaments across the country, taking home gold as the 2016 USAPA Nationals women’s singles champion and with Lucy Kovalova as women’s pro doubles champions at the 2018 USAPA Nationals and 2019 US Open. Irina is a true all-around player—precise but forceful, intense but charming, no-nonsense but all play.
