AJ Koller is a professional pickleball player on the PPA Tour, competing in men's doubles and mixed doubles. He found pickleball in Las Vegas in 2018 after moving there for a job and began playing pro tournaments in 2019. Known for his crab walk along the kitchen line, lightning-fast hands, and lanky stature, Koller is a threat at the net but also one of the better defenders in the game. He describes his game as "all wrist," attributing his wrist strength to his 16-year hockey career. His favorite shot is the lob, carried over from his days on the tennis court. Koller attended the University of Colorado Boulder, where he played ice hockey four years and graduated with a degree in civil engineering before becoming a full-time touring pro.
