Wonderful interview and comprehensive chronology of Leigh and Anna Leigh's careers.
Thank you!
What a great episode. How fun to experience this as a mother/daughter duo. I just started playing at 64😲 and I can’t wait to get up each morning and go play.
So glad you enjoyed it! And welcome to pickleball! It’s an amazing sport - Leigh and Anna Leigh are great ambassadors.
fantastic interview! i too loved the back-and- forth exchange..Both lovely ladies!
Great interview. I’m amazed by ALW. Lightning fast reflexes, so consistent, love following her play. Great mom!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I met (said "hi") to Leigh and Anna Leigh at the Kansas City tournament. They were both so nice and though the interaction was short, they were both very nice and seemed like they were glad to meet a fan. What a great family.
A wonderful interviewee Ms. Waters…Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great interview!
Nice interview and great stories.
Glad you enjoyed it!
great interview! Loved the back and forth and the conversation flowed very naturally. I love to watch the Waters play and I have missed watching Leigh. I hope she will start playing professionally again, even if it means she and AE might not be partners. Time will tell!
Glad you enjoyed it!
She is truly amazing and I see why. What a fabulous support group. Leigh you are a great person and mother. What a team.
We agree 100%!
@@SimplyPickleball I believe we will see ALW on the WTA tour. Tennis is an international sport (pickleball at this time doesn't have a world tour). I saw a picture of ALW with Martina Hinges holding tennis racquets and not pickleball paddles. This makes me wonder if ALW was picking Martina's brain about playing on the women's pro tennis tour. Funny that ALW and Martina are almost the exact same size. My prediction is that ALW will be on the WTA tour at some point in time. It would be a win/win for both tennis and pickleball.
Great story.
45:00 This is good, but at this point the discussion is rambling on about fame management and it _still_ hasn't approached the first question about Anna's further development. Is Anna Leigh Waters Unstoppable? Tune in next year and possibly find out.
Really enjoyed the interview. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching
YES.
Interesting. I play piano duets with my daughters. It’s fun to play together! I just started pickleball this year. It’s a fun game for a non athlete too!
Fascinating. Amazing how ALW became ALW.
Thanks Doug!
You are both such lovely positve women. Thank you for the questions and insights. I really enjoyed this.
Thank you :)

I would been more impressed if she came up the way Williams sisters did. This or equestrian. 😊
So by her mothers own admission, ALW was a sandbagger, and was caught.
Are you talking about when she played her first tournament and was moved into a higher bracket? That's pretty common at the 3.0/3.5/4.0 level during someone's early tournament career.
@@SimplyPickleball not sure it was her first. But would think her mother, the pro player, the coach, would have a pretty good idea of her daughter’s rating.
@@SimplyPickleball the officials knew she was in the wrong level of play, but not her trained mother…strange.
@@jeffcaptain6738stop it. 🙄
Her paddle is super customised. Therefore, simply cheating is how she rose to be number one.
Paddles need to be approved by the USAPA for tournament play. And then each tournament league (PPA, MLP, etc.) does additional testing. It would be pretty hard to dominate multiple leagues over the course of many years with a non-confirming paddle. Do you know something we don't?
@@SimplyPickleball They only know how to project. That's it. Classic projection. Sad, really. Great episode from a BRAND-new pickler.
This is a troll. Baseless claim
@@SimplyPickleballexcept it's been reported that rules are bent for the top players. It's on TH-cam too.
@@gg80108 Interesting. Which rules are bent?
