Megan Fudge, originally from Dusseldorf, Germany, has quickly emerged as one of the APP’s top women’s pros after a breakout 2022 season. A former Division I college tennis player at the University of Illinois, Fudge transitioned to professional pickleball in 2021 and has won multiple gold medals on the APP Tour. Outside of pickleball, Fudge enjoys hiking, running, biking, and spending time with her family – her husband, Ryler DeHeart, is a fellow APP pro, and their two kids, Lily (8) and JR (6), are future pickleball stars.
