Wolfe’s life changed 11 years ago when he was introduced to the sport of pickleball while he was hosting a morning show in Greensboro, NC. Wolfe called this “the second most fantastic day of my life.” He became hooked on the sport and was determined to be on the court every day as he found it to be not only fun, but also a great stress reliever. He started playing in many tournaments, earning various titles and awards. When he relocated to Atlanta in 2016, his focus changed from his pickleball career, to helping others with theirs.

He has spent his time studying the sports and helping others play. Following his relocation, Wolfe became a co-owner with Chad Cromwell of the Atlanta Pickleball Association (ATLPBA).

Wolfe is most known for starting the Atlanta Open Pickleball Tournament, one of the biggest Pickleball Tournaments held nation-wide. He partnered with Lifetime Fitness at Peachtree Corners, GA to hold this pickleball tournament. Then, Wolfe and partner Cromwell ran and hosted the first Atlanta Open Pickleball Tournament. This tournament ended up being a huge success, being one of the country’s highest-paying pro tournaments at the time. Fast-forwarding to 2021, Wolfe and Cromwell partnered with the Pro Pickleball Association (PPA), had 1,168 registered players, and gave away over 100K at the Atlanta Open.

“I have been teaching and organizing for years. I have been trying to figure out how to center my career using my expertise in the sport,” states Wolfe. “When people say, if you do what you love, you will never work a day in your life. This new role will allow me the opportunity to never work again in my life, and I could not be more excited for this opportunity.”
