Jorja Johnson

If you're looking for a pickleball dynasty, the Johnson family might be it. Jorja Johnson is the younger sister of JW Johnson, and the two of them have been terrorizing opponents in mixed doubles together since she turned pro at the absurdly young age of 15. Originally from Pittsburg, Kansas, the family moved to Naples, Florida in 2019 to support JW's tennis career, but they all fell in love with pickleball instead. Unlike most pros on tour, Jorja never played competitive tennis - she's a pure pickleball product, which makes her rapid ascent even more impressive.

At just 20 years old, Jorja has already won the APP Triple Crown (singles, doubles, and mixed at the same event) at the Sacramento Open at age 17, making her the youngest player to ever do it. She's ranked in the top 5 in women's doubles and top 2 in mixed doubles on the PPA Tour, frequently partnering with Hurricane Tyra Black in women's doubles. She was voted fan MVP for the Dallas Flash in MLP in 2025 and continues to climb. Sponsored by Franklin Pickleball and Chicken N Pickle, Jorja brings fearless net attacks, a nasty backhand, and the kind of composure that makes you forget she's still barely old enough to rent a car.
