Raised in northern Utah within a pickleball-loving family, Alli Phillips is no stranger to the game. The sixth child among eight siblings, Phillips has been honing her pickleball skills for seven years. Alongside her tennis endeavors, she found notable success in pickleball during the 2010s, clinching victories at prestigious events such as the 2019 Margaritaville USA Pickleball National Championships and the 2021 AAU World Junior Olympics.
Upon graduating high school, Phillips committed herself fully to pickleball, earning recognition as the nation's top female college player in both singles and doubles according to DUPR rankings in 2022. Transitioning to the professional circuit in 2023, she swiftly secured a spot with the PPA Tour and currently competes at the Challenger Level of Major League Pickleball as a key member of the New Jersey 5&rsquo;s.
Beyond her prowess on the court, Phillips is also dedicated to sharing her passion for pickleball through coaching. With over three years of experience teaching players of all ages, she has even served as an instructor for pickleball classes at Utah State University.
Off the court, Phillips indulges her love for the "Lord of the Rings" and "Harry Potter" series, showcasing her knack for memorizing movie quotes, song lyrics, and dance moves with remarkable speed. She is currently sponsored by LEOR&Ecirc;VER and Holbrook.
