John Lucian Goins is an American professional pickleball player from Bradenton, Florida, who competes in men's singles on the PPA Tour. He won his first career PPA title at the Veolia Bristol Open in Tennessee, defeating Gabe Joseph 13-11, 9-11, 11-2 in the men's singles final. A right-handed player who turned pro in 2024, Goins is also a self-described "big chess lover" and credits the game with sharpening his on-court strategy: "Seeing moves in advance and my anticipation, I feel like that comes a lot from chess." He points to anticipation as a defining strength, working to block off opponents' angles in singles play.
