Who’s the best men’s pro that Anna Leigh Waters could beat in singles? 💪🏼
Where do you think you’d end up in a men’s singles draw? Playing someone like Rosco, I’d probably get annihilated. I mean, we do have a court right here. No, just because he’s so tall. Tall guys with a ton of power like James Dado in practice. Like Christian in practice. Can you beat them? I haven’t played Christian in a while. Could you beat Ryan Sherry? Remember that was a thing? Yes, for sure. Ryan wants to play. Would you do it if there’s a lot of money on the line? Depends. What’s the What’s a lot of money, I guess.

She’s good but she’s isn’t all that 💔
Anna Leigh is a Pickleball legend which explains why weak men like to put her down.
I think she will beat most of the man
Alshon would destroy her but I do want to see her men's level. I think she should do it
What about Quang Duong?
It's pickleball. It's not hard.
Definitely appreciate her honesty. Respect.
She would do well against many of the men on the pro tour. She wouldn't win so much but she would probably be close. But the spread for tennis is much greater. Serena said something like losing to Andy Murray 6-0 6-0 in like 5-6 minutes. McEnroe said she would rank 700 and she didnt like even being involved in that conversation. But I think ALW could probably be around 20 on the current men's tour ( a guess) but we dont have the long (and breadth of players) history of pickleball like we do with tennis (ie a college sport)
She’d be too slow to keep up with men’s singles. She’s great at mixed doubles because there’s substantially less to cover.
I want to see ALW play against Ben Johns!!!
She’d get beat by Ryan sherry 11-6, 11-5
it's different than tennis because alw gaps the other women by kind of a lot
She would get annihilated by the top 10 men's singles player. Hunter Johnson, annihilation, Staksrud, annihilation, Garnett, annihilation, Sock, annihilation, Johns, annihilation. You can always beat Billy.
If ALW, who is considered one of the best players in the world, is still at a disadvantage because of her gender (as per the comments here), shouldn’t then DUPR use gender as one of the determining factors in their algorithm?
one of the big advantages in tennis is the men's serve. Guys are taller with stronger upper body strength. A top women in tennis can't beat a man in the top 1000. Anna leigh can maybe be top 30 in mens. She's that good.
Ridiculous to even consider men and women equal in sports. Even Serena Williams would not play against men in singles.
How many times do we have to see mid-level men destroy elite female athletes in order for people to stop being delusional? It's okay to be different, it isn't women's fault that they aren't built like men. It is their fault for not recognizing it though
She has a soft corner with Jimmy
She would get DESTROYED by any top 20 men's players like Alshon. There's a reason her DUPA is much lower than the men's division players.
Ah women are delusional in every sport.

She would lose to sherry 😅
I think pickleball has the potential to be closer than other sports due to the nature of the ball. It slows down so fast that the extra power men have isnt quite as much of an advantage as it is in other sports. On average, pro men are still beating pro women. But ALW has a real shot to place well in a mens singles tournament.
I think she could compete in men's doubles, though not singles
Seeing a lot of people comparing this to the Serena situation in tennis. There’s a lot more athleticism and power in tennis than in pickleball. It’s a very different situation.
