Renowned among his tennis peers as "Avatar," Quang Duong made his inaugural foray into pickleball competition at the esteemed PPA Tour's Atlanta Open in May 2023. Often seen sharing the court with his brother Bao, affectionately known as "Nitro," Duong brings a wealth of athletic prowess and determination to the pickleball arena.

With a storied background in tennis, Duong distinguished himself as a top-ranked ITF junior player and garnered acclaim as a formidable paddle tennis competitor, clinching numerous singles and doubles titles by the tender age of 15. Following his seamless transition to pickleball, Duong's meteoric rise saw him ascend to the esteemed ranks of the Top 20 in the PPA Tour singles standings within a remarkably short span of time.
