Anna Leigh Waters is the top female pickleball player at 16 after becoming a professional player at 12.

Teen pickleball player Anna Leigh Waters earns six figures

At the beginning of the year. This was my first ever triple crown at the end of the year. This is actually my eighth triple crown of 2022. This is the biggest trophy I have ever received. I'm Anna Lee Waters. I'm 16 years old and I'm the number one female professional pickle ball player. Mhm. Pickle ball has become so popular because anyone can play, any age can play and any skill level can play. You can have fun, you can be competitive. It's just a sport for everyone with the first pick in the 2023 major league pick a ball draft. The new Jersey fives select Anna Lee Waters so good everywhere on the court. There is no weakness in this young lady, Anna Lee was unquestionably the number one pick I think for everybody in the draft, people are picking men and women and to have a number one pick that was a female player and to have more women's picks in the top 10 than men was really remarkable and says something about pickle ball. She is a young phenom ranked number one in the world, both in singles, mixed doubles and women's doubles. She is the most dominant player in the game at the tournament of champions. I won the most or had the most points in that tournament. I was ranked the number one women's singles player at 14 years old. I feel like the achievement that I'm most proud of didn't actually happen this year. It happened in 2019 when I won nationals with my mom. I remember after we won the match, she like jumped and then she started like running around the court and I was like chasing her, like wanting to hug her and like celebrate with her waters and waters. It was our first huge tournament that we went together. I think I had an out of body experience. We had reached a goal that, you know, that we had set because I never thought of pickleball as a job. But at the same time, like, I guess it kind of is, it's a very fun job, especially this year. A lot of big companies have gotten into the sport. I've also seen a big growth in like celebrity pickleball. I've had a lot of sponsorship opportunities. I have an agent now. I am so young and to, you know, learn as many things as I'm learning and, you know, be a part of sponsorship deals and learning about contracts. Sometimes I'll see like the checks that come in and I'm like, save it. I'm saving, I'm put in the bank. I try not to spend my money. You see someone like Michael Jordan who can like design their own shoe and then I'm sponsored by. So I'm kind of designing a shoe with them. It's just kind of cool that I can be kind of grouped into like an athlete that's making their own shoe, which, which is amazing. Annie and I started playing pickle ball at the exact same day, the exact same second, we evacuated our home in Florida due to a hurricane and we went to visit my father who lived in Pennsylvania and he asked us, you know, do you want to go play pickle ball? And at first we were kind of like, no, because we didn't know what it was. And I was pretty young. I think I was 10. So we thought it was an older person sport, but we went and from the moment we stepped on the court, we were, we were hooked. First time I hit the ball, I was like in love with the sport. We played like three times a day for like two weeks straight while we were up there. From when I first started playing, I played with my grandfather and my mom and I can still play with my grandfather and my mom. It's fun, but it's also embarrassing. Uh, as I got older and older, obviously, I got worse and worse and as she got older, she got better and better. Unfortunately, at the previous national tournament Lee was injured. So when Anna Lee was going into a finals match, she had nobody to warm her up. So I actually warmed her up. I really don't know the outcome of the success of the warm up, but she won. So I guess I did something right. Anna Lee and I play a few times a week. Some of that is playing, some of that is drilling, watching Annaly compete. She's feisty. She's an animal. She's an absolute beast on the court. I'm a full time student, but I am also a full time professional pickleball player. So hopefully I'm gonna make a career out of this. You got that right on his mic. Can you send it to me? Yeah, when I'm home, I usually play pickle ball five days a week. I usually drill like two times a week and then I'll play games three times a week. If I'm drilling, it's around two hours. And if I'm playing games, it can be anywhere from like 2 to 3 hours. And I'm usually in the gym five days a week as well. I would say average in a day, I'm working out like four hours and even on my off days, I'm doing either some kind of cardio or walking. She started off as a soccer player and tennis player converted, I think at 11 and she learned the game went pro at 12 lightning quick hands. Great court awareness, great court coverage. I have a lot of different skill sets from different sports for soccer. It was, it's definitely like the footwork and the fast sprinting and the lateral movement and stuff for tennis. It's definitely the form. The form is very similar if you watch tennis and pickle ball. But there is a big difference between like strategy and pickleball and tennis. So I had to learn that Anna Lee and I had come from tennis and the minute I stepped on the court, I just wanted to hit the ball hard and everybody kept telling us like you're not playing correctly. This isn't how you play. You have to hit soft, you have to hit these dinks. But it's just what came so true to, to me and Anna Lee was this power game. So we just continued with our game. And the next thing you know, we were winning national championships at the pro level and we were known for our aggressive style of play. A lot of people ask the question like, how do you guys play on the court together? Isn't it hard that she's your mom and that she's your daughter is in the dynamic. Weird. But I feel like for us it's the opposite. Like we have this mother daughter intuition where we know where the other one's gonna be on the court. And if we miss a shot, we know the other person is not going to be mad at us. So we just feel like you know, we can play how we want to play. We don't have to worry about disappointing our partner because no matter what happens on the court, we're a family and that's what families do. They stick together. I travel with not only my mom but also my dad win or lose. Me and my family always go out to eat and I have a really special bond with my grandmom. She's been home schooling me from third grade on, I'm in 11th grade. Even before I started playing pickleball, I was home schooling and it just really worked out because I couldn't travel and do all the things that I'm doing with pickleball right now becoming a professional athlete. I am so proud of Anna Lee. Her coaches and her other sports have always told us what an athlete she was and what potential she had. But you still don't necessarily go to like, oh professional athletes. This is probably a very futuristic goal, but I want to play pickle ball in the Olympics one day I grew up watching the Olympics and I think it would be really cool to represent my country. And I also want to see pickleball grow like in other countries. I also want to see pickle ball grow in like high schools and get younger kids involved. And that's something that I'm working on now. So in the beginning of this year, one of my goals was to get a triple crown and I ended up getting eight this year, which was amazing. If I've accomplished the goal, there's still something better you can do. So I feel like next year I'm gonna try to get nine triple crowns, uh, which would be, might be difficult, but I'm gonna try to do it. I'm just really, you know, enjoying the ride and I wanna keep going as long as I can. Uh When we came home, we decided we were going to get a ping pong table. I think we played about two weeks before Anna Lee got so good that nobody wanted to play with her anymore. And I don't think we've played ping pong since.

Pickleball has burst into the mainstream due to its low barrier to entry and variety of health benefits—including the opportunity to socialize and build community—and investors big and small have picked up on the trend.

Pickleball has burst into the mainstream and attracted big-name investors due to its low barrier to entry and variety of health benefits—including the opportunity to socialize and build community.

there's this massive explosion and it's just really taken off first time hit the ball. I was like in love with the sport and I think once people play it, they become addicted to the point where they don't ever want to play anything else. Pickleball is a paddle sport, combines elements of badminton, table tennis and tennis. It's similar to tennis where you're trying to get your opponents to make an error either by hitting into the net out or letting the ball bounce twice and you're trying to score points. So first team to 11 wins the game, the dimensions are exactly the same as the badminton court, so it's 20 ft wide by 44 ft long. Pickleball was started and sort of 1965 by the pritchard family from Bainbridge island Washington and in Washington they had these boat races where they would have a boat which is the stronger rowers and then the B boat which was kind of random people thrown into the boat together and they would call that the pickle boat, they were looking for a game for their kids to play. They had ping pong paddle ball, they were trying to play badminton, they didn't have enough stuff and so they set it up and started playing the game kind of took off from there When I discovered pickleball, it was the middle of the first summer pandemic and I think there were the ideal conditions for the sport of pickleball to kind of really thrive. It was a game that families could go outside, you can easily set up a net in your driveway. Once people started playing it really kind of took off. Pickleball has a very low barrier to entry. You can learn the game in 10, 15 minutes. So relative to other sports where the learning curve can feel quite steep before you can actually play a game of all, you can really just jump right in from the get go. It's a low price point from an accessibility perspective when you play it, you can play it at a very active manner. You can play it very casually from when I first started playing, I played with my grandfather and my mom and I can still play with my grandfather and my mom. So I think this is really cool that you can just play with all eight Throughout your family. So I just think it's a sport for everyone and that everyone can do together. And so there's a really fun, joyous element to it as well. As of today we've got about five million active players growing at 30, We expected to be close to 40 million players in the next 10 years. If that happens, it would be the largest participated in the us, my friends when I first started playing pickleball had absolutely no idea. But then once it kind of exploded there, like seeing me on tv and stuff and they're like, oh my gosh, this is like a real thing, I would say in the beginning of my pickleball career when we would go and travel somewhere and we would tell someone why were in town, they would be like, what's pickleball? And we'd have to explain it to them and now when we go and I'm like, oh my gosh, I love pickle ball, I played all the time or I just started playing pickle ball. I feel like everyone knows what it is when you look at sort of the amateur grassroots game and you have five million players going to 40 million. That would be more than tennis or golf. So you have a mass population of players playing when people are playing games, they're gonna obviously buy equipment, they're gonna buy merch, they're gonna join clubs, they're gonna watch professional league. So when you think about that huge community, uh, there's a tremendous investment opportunity. There are a number of celebrities and athletes that have a real passion for the game. And as a result of that passion, a significant amount of them have been investing in MLP and other ventures in Pickleball. The Kardashian started playing it. Vanderpump rules, it was featured on there, some major athletes like Lebron James and Draymond and kevin Love and tom brady and kim clijsters started purchasing major League Baseball teams, longoria visit Azul Heidi Klum, I met Jamie Foxx, Michael Phelps, Larry Fitzgerald, like I played pickleball with all of them, there's like so many celebrities that are getting into Pickleball or that have pickleball courts at their house or investing to pickleball, there's just a lot of engagement because people fundamentally are looking to invest in where they have a passion and I think a lot of these folks come from a passion of playing and then they recognized that sort of growth in the game and that's the reason they come in to invest. Community is such a key aspect to pickleball. Once you get into it, once you start playing it's very easy to have this passion for it and want to play it every day. So when you find others who share this passion you instantly have this connection. It's one of these games where if you've never played it before you can show up to a court and people will always embrace you. They're really interested in teaching other people how to play it within a couple of games, you'll know all the roles and you're never gonna leave that community. Um It's really fanatical in that way which is really wonderful. I really look forward to it growing. Two point where 40 million people are playing in the U. S. And that number more than doubles globally. I think if we can do that it unites people, it brings people into community. It brings a lot of things that we sort of need in the world in the country and I'm pretty excited about all those things

Cynt Marshall tells her leadership story as the first Black female CEO of an NBA basketball team and why Mark Cuban hired her.

How Cynthia Marshall eliminated the Dallas Mavericks’ toxic culture in 100 days

Leadership

How Cynt Marshall eliminated the Mavericks’ toxic culture

since I'm so happy to meet you and to introduce you to our viewers. Four years ago you became the first black woman to hold the Ceo job for any NBA team. You were hired to run the Dallas Mavericks and it was none other than Mark Cuban who recruited you himself to fix the team's toxic culture. You didn't know Mark, you knew very little about basketball. Why did you take the job? I took it because I just felt that I was uniquely qualified to help him out. He needed a culture change and that was the mandate transformed the culture. He needed a focus on diversity equity and inclusion. And two women stopped me after I met with him for almost an hour and just pleaded with me to take the job. And so I at first said I did it for the sisterhood. But actually I did it for the sisterhood and a brotherhood. Let me back up a little bit. Why did Mark Cuban come to you, You didn't know him, he didn't really know you correctly, but someone gave him my name. And so we think we know we I think it was somebody pretty high up at A T. And T. Because I had actually left the effort at A T and T to get a T. And T on fortune's 100 best places to work list when the scandal hit my name came up as somebody who they told Mark, we think this person can help you. She's still in Dallas. We don't know if she's moved yet. We think she started her own company. But give her a call. We think she's the person who can help you out. And I got that call and you did help him out. And what a job you took out because the Dallas math, I had a long terrible record on sexual harassment, domestic violence and a whole bunch of other workplace misconduct issues. But you clean things up and in 90 days, how did you do that? We put together a 100 day plan that had about 200 initiatives. Uh, four distinct pieces. The first part was about uh modeling zero tolerance. So setting up the infrastructure uh, for zero tolerance things will happen, but we won't tolerate it. Uh, so we focused on compliance. Speak up culture, all that. Uh, then our second piece was the Mavs women's agenda. We have a playbook to elevate empower and educate women. I didn't have any women in permanent leaders positions when I joined the Dallas Mavericks. So clearly we had to do something about that very quickly. And then we had cultural transformation initiatives. That's our diversity equity and inclusion agenda around our customers, our reputation uh community philanthropy suppliers, all that. And then just basic operational effectiveness, performance reviews, market based compensation, all that. So we have these 200 initiatives that everybody rallied around, I diversified my leadership team within those 100 days. So we're now 50% women, 50% people of color at my executive leadership team table, which I think had a lot to do with just setting the right tone and we all rallied around it and we executed on it. You make it sound seamless and you know, very straightforward. But when I'm thinking of a basketball team with all of these egos, There must have been so many people who were resisting this whole program. I mean, how did you break through? Actually we, most of the people wanted change. Most of the people wanted a great place to work. I had one on one meetings with every single employee and I got to know them. And then I also got to know the people who needed to leave. I mean, some of the leaders needed to, uh, they needed to be walked to the door. I did have someone who told his team not to embrace the 100 day plan Because I would be gone in 90 days because it was just a pr stunt and I didn't know basketball and all that. Uh, and so we, we had to deal with that. That person is no longer with the mass. Uh, and then his team started to embrace. They wanted to embrace it, which is what I, you know, that's how I heard about it. They wanted a change. These people deserved a great place to work. You had a very successful career. You're 37 years at a T and T where you were chief diversity officer. So you probably knew everything. There was about leadership. But is there any way that this experience with the Dallas Mavericks stretched you as a leader and as a coach? Well, it actually did because I didn't know the business of basketball. I was a big basketball fan, but I didn't know the business of basketball that was different for me to be in an environment where I just I didn't know the subject matter at all and had to lead the people and and just rely on their expertise. But it showed me that I really good that I could trust people, I could trust their expertise. I didn't have to know at all, which I was used to, you know, knowing the subject matter and and it just showed me what great people we really do have. Your story is all the more amazing because you had a tough childhood, you had an abusive and violent father, you grew up in the housing projects of California, but you managed to somehow break away from all that. You got a college scholarship to Berkeley first job was a T and T. We know what happened there and climbing the corporate ladder. You write in your book, the chosen that you spent your life beating the odds. But it sounds like it was so much more than that, who mentored you, Who inspired you, my mother, my my totally inspired me and I tell people because of my mother, I actually think I had a good childhood. I had some bad things that happened, obviously some bad things that happened in my childhood, but my mother, she went to great extremes to make sure that we got a good education to make sure that we were involved in activities to make sure that we got a good foundation uh in scripture. I always joke about my mother putting two books in my hand and early age, a math book in one hand and a bible in the other and told me to keep my head in these two books and I would make it out and I guess that was out of poverty. Uh so I just credit my mother was giving me a really, really good foundation and keeping me very focused and giving me these four words to live by dream focus, pray and act what did it take for you to feel confident and comfortable with who you were in your whole background as you entered into this new phase of your career when I started, you know working at first of course I had situations where I had bosses to tell me to you know, take off my red shoes, take off my braids. I had braids when I first started working for a T and T and I had a boss told me to take them down because it was too ethnic and and it was she was well intentioned, she wanted me to look a certain part like other people looked and all that. But it finally got to a point, you know, like 1920 years in my career where I just I said I had to be me. It's too exhausting being someone else. And fortunately I had bosses, I had people like a Randall Stephenson and Ed Whittaker, I had people in my life of chuck smith, these mentors of mine, mostly men who made it ok for me to be me. How do you use this your life story as you mentor young men and women today, I share all of its authenticity is very big for me. That's one of my personal val, it's one of our values at the map. So our hashtag is do you uh so if I'm going to tell somebody they need to be themselves, is too exhausting being somebody else. Your employer wants, you, you have to bring your best self to work. I have to give them my best self. And I have to model that, and I try to model that by letting people know who I am when they first meet me. So if you have to summarize it, what type of leadership does it take to transform a culture? Oh, I love that question. I call it all in leadership. Leading with intent, leading with insight. Leading with inclusion and leading with inspiration. And so I do this speech called leading with heart and I talk about all of those areas and how you have to be very intentional about changing the culture. You have to have a plan. You have to be insightful about the difference between diversity and inclusion and equity and equality, insightful about who really is in your workplace and how do you serve them? You have to be very inclusive, not just focus on diversity but inclusion, making sure that you set up a culture where people really feel as if they belong, where you're really teaching people the rules and what to do uh in the environment, and then just being very inspirational, knowing what inspires you, and then bringing that into the workplace to keep the folks inspired to do better.

Pascal Soriot says the AZ vaccine saved the most lives globally, and Queen Elizabeth rewards him with knighthood. 

AstraZeneca CEO: “Covid is here to stay” 


Pascal Soriot says the AZ vaccine saved the most lives globally, and Queen Elizabeth rewards him with knighthood. 

Pascal Soriot says the AZ vaccine saved the most lives globally.

pascal welcome to fortune and thank you so much for joining us. Let's begin our conversation talking about Covid, your company Astrazeneca played a very important role in the research and delivery of a Covid vaccine. As you look back on your development efforts, What would you say were the upsides and the downsides? So if I look at this vaccine, if I look at this in Niagara and first of all, I think it was a great success in the sense that it delivered a huge impact on on this pandemic globally. We delivered 3.5 billion doses of vaccines and it has been independently estimated that we saved more than six million lives. Actually, our vaccine is the vaccine and save the most lives around the world. Now within this of course we have we faced setbacks for instance, we had challenges in deliveries of the quantities that europe was expecting of us. So we faced a few challenges like we always do with projects in our industry. But I would say overall we had a huge impact on this lower pandemic now that you can look back on that period. Is there anything you would have done differently? I can't think of anything that um not knowing what we know today, that we would have done differently now. What I would have hoped though, if something like this happened again is to start from the very beginning, we joined the University of Oxford in May of 2020 And they had already done a lot of work. Other companies started, they started their projects in January February of 2020. And these five months of difference created of course a big of a bit of a hurdle for us in terms of catching up to the work that needed to be done to bring this development to what was required for global regulators around the world. So I would have hoped to start earlier. But other than that, I think we just gave it our best shot. If I may say so. Well, I'm sure you've learned so much about covid over the last 2.5 years from everything that you've learned is covid here to stay. I mean, do you see a day where we won't be talking about Covid infections and hospitalizations? I think Covid is here to stay and most experts would agree with that. I'm hoping that time will come when we don't talk as much about it because we've learned to live with it. People get boosted with regular vaccine injections. Probably older people need to be boosted more often than young healthy people. And but we will learn to live with it and manage it just like we managed the flu and many other of our whole diseases. So pascal what's your vision for Astrazeneca? What do you want it to be best known for? We want to be known as a company that follows the science and innovate and discovers products that will really change the treatment of important diseases and cancer cardiovascular disease, respiratory diseases like asthma COPD rare diseases and more recently we engaged in infectious diseases for vaccines and immune therapy. And ultimately we want to be seen as a company that really shapes the future of medicine. Well it's a year now since you bought Alexey in, you paid almost $40 billion for this pharma company based in the United States, how does seleccion fit into your plans? It fits very well actually. And it helps us expand our portfolio to include rare disease medicines and it's gone very well so far we are using the Dominican network globally to bring the election products to a variety of countries china emerging markets and so we are really helping them distribute the products globally. And our research and development teams are also working together. So the Alex and team can leverage their technologies to deliver to develop and and deliver new medicines for rare diseases. So it's going very well so far well do you have a blockbuster drug that's in the works and ready for the market? Yes, we are helping election globalized product that they launched recently called Ramirez which is a product that addresses a variety of rare diseases. The more recent set of data we got was in a disease called an M. O. S. D. Which is a disease that affects the optical nerve and and essentially people go blind. It's an awful disease because you lose your eyesight and you recover it and use it again another period of time. It gets worse and worse and you become blind. And until now the treatments were not really very, very strong and very good. And so this this compound really has tremendous clinical results. You mentioned that you are also doing a lot with cancer drugs and treatments. What other promising drugs do you have in the pipeline that would interest our viewers to, which is a product that is used for the treatment of breast cancer and has recently shown absolutely outstanding results. Well, it sounds like you have some really big plans for Astrazeneca. Do you intend to go it alone or are you open to a merger? We have the critical mass. We have global footprint. We have large turnover, large resources so we don't need a merger. And suddenly that's not our priority. A priority is more to do what we call Burton acquisitions, which is to complement our own pipeline with products we acquire from the outside. Are you interested more as being a buyer or a seller? Well, we are mostly a buyer. We are in a position today that we can definitely consider acquiring products or companies. But again, as I said, mostly small to mid sized companies that we can add to our portfolio. And next Allergic stands for us to complement what we are doing. Well, you know, investors still talk about fighters, huge offer to buy Astrazeneca from a couple of years ago. Any regrets or second thoughts about that, that merger didn't go through? Well, first of all they have learned in life. Do not regret what I've done in the past. But in that instance we only tell you that Asher price in the last 10 years has got report it is today $67 and it has doubled since Faisal made the offer. So I think the sharp price evolution over the last few years since Faisal made the offer has demonstrated that we could create a lot of value on our own for our shareholders, but also more importantly for patients, we have brought to patients many, many new medicines that make a big difference to the treatment of cancer, cardiovascular disease and many other conditions. So no regrets of that. You could have been a much bigger company? Well, actually, no regret. I mean in our industry really the focus has to be to innovate and come up with new medicines. It's very simple. You have to help patients with new innovative medicines. The goal can be to be very big. It has to be to innovate and create value for innovation and that's what we've done. Well, let's talk a little bit about leadership and your leadership pascal Astrazeneca is a much stronger company too. When you took over back in 2012, what do you see as the key thing that you did as a Ceo and as a leader to transform Astrazeneca into a powerhouse pharma company, you mentioned that your stock is almost quadruples during your leadership, but also you've gotten sales and revenues are so much stronger. So what was the most important thing that you did to pull this all off? I think making clear choices and choosing innovation and science, which many people might say today is obvious, but 10 years ago the industry was in a different place. So creating this focus and this set of choices, building a team. We have a tremendous team today, um you know, attracting the right people who can make a big difference and finally creating a culture where people really share a common ambition, which is to be an innovator and a company that wants to shape the future of medicine. Well, you're celebrating your 10th anniversary as Ceo, what are you most proud that you've done in this last decade? What's your proudest accomplishment? Well actually, you know, to see the impact that our medicines are having on patients is really extremely rewarding. I can tell you, I was at this council congress in Chicago a few months ago at the ASco and being in the room and have tens of thousands of oncology is from around the world giving a standing ovation to results were presented. They're not, we, but the investigators are presented is incredibly rewarding because you know, you're shaping the future of medicine, you're shaping the way cancer is treated. So that's what I'm the most proud of. And of course the team and the people working for the company and to see them grow and develop has been incredibly rewarding. Well, you were recently awarded a knighthood from Queen Elizabeth for your contributions to science and all of your work on the Covid vaccine. So Sir, pascal, what's your reaction to this high honor? What does it mean to you? It's incredibly humbling. Um You know, I come from very modest beginnings um and my career has been, you know, moving around the world, always focused on pharmaceuticals and bringing new medicines to the market. And being rewarded with this knighthood by the Queen is of course incredibly humbling and something I had to take a little bit of time to get my head around because, you know, I'm not british and this has been quite a quite a quite a remarkable achievement for me.
