Jordan Davis keeps in shape on the road by playing basketball, pickleball and golfing, but don’t think he’s a pushover and will let you win at any sport he is playing. He’s a pretty competitive fella.

“When it comes to – don’t get it twisted – we are playing pickleball half for exercise, because nobody wants to go do cardio, so you might as well play something while you’re getting cardio in,” says Jordan. “The other half is I am trying to absolutely crush every other person on the other side of that net. I, I am. I am competitive. I like to win. I don’t like to lose, and it boils over sometimes. We have to have some sitdowns in the greenroom and be like, ‘Hey-I didn’t really mean that.’ It boils over on the golf course. If I’m gonna do something, I want to win at it. It’s pretty competitive out there (laughs), so yes (I’m competitive).”

The Louisiana native is closing in at the top of the country charts with his latest hit, “Tucson Too Late,” and he takes his Damn Good Time World Tour to Charlotte and Wilmington, North Carolina, as well as Jacksonville, Florida this weekend.
