ABOUT RHONDA

Rhonda Rajsich is the most decorated professional racquetball player in U.S. history. She started playing racquetball at the age of two, as her father took her to the gym while he played. She grew up playing a bit of everything, but focused on racquetball and basketball throughout her youth and young-adulthood. Rajsich was also a decorated basketball player, earning top honors and achievements in high school, which earned her a full-ride scholarship to a Division I school in east Texas, Stephen F. Austin, to play basketball for the Ladyjacks. Rhonda intended to play professional basketball in the WNBA, and had the opportunities to do so, but when she qualified for a spot on the US TEAM for racquetball, she refocused her efforts. She chose to give racquetball her full attention and try out the Pro Tour. Just three months into her first pro season, Rhonda made the finals of her first US Open, taking out the #1 player in the world. At the end of that rookie season, Rajsich was ranked #3 in the world, and has not looked back. She has sustained a Top-5 position in the world rankings for her entire professional career, and achieved #1 in the world for 4 consecutive seasons.


Rhonda's passion and love of sport is without question, as is her enjoyment in sharing the experiences and camaraderie of competition and travel. She does countless exhibitions, clinics, appearances, autograph signings, and motivational speeches throughout the year, and goes above and beyond to help create an experience to remember, to inspire, and to enjoy. Always entertaining, Rhonda has a way of truly engaging and energizing a crowd. Her dynamic yet humble personality and jaw-dropping abilities have made Rhonda Rajsich a remarkable model of all that is right in sport.
