Parenteau, 31, and Rohrabacher, 28, played PPA tournaments together earlier this year after their respective former partners, Anna Leigh Waters and Anna Bright, decided to separate from them and form a tandem of their own.

Immediately following the breakups, Parenteau and Rohrabacher claimed silver together at the Veolia Atlanta Pickleball Championships in May and the Select Medical Orange County Cup in June — falling to Waters and Bright in the final at both events.

The full-time Parenteau-Rohrabacher partnership debuts in January at the PPA Masters powered by Invited at Mission Hills Country Club in Rancho Mirage, CA.
