Boris Paque

Boris Paque is a Belgian professional pickleball player, the #1 ranked player in Belgium and a three-time national champion. He is a signed PPA Tour Europe player and is represented by Peak Pickleball Agency.

Tennis and soccer came first. He found pickleball in a video on social media and made it his sport, despite Belgium offering few courts and little of the high-level competition a pro needs to train against.

More than 20 medals on the European professional tour followed, along with a World Cup appearance for Belgium. He now splits the year between Europe and Florida, training and coaching at the Mouratoglou Academy in Zephyrhills.

A lefty, he plays off heavy baseline drives, a strong backhand, and cross-court dinks angled to pull opponents wide. Fashion, art, and architecture occupy him away from the court.
