Anna Leigh Waters v Kate Fahey at the Las Vegas Pickleball Cup

[@GaryMLive]

The post game interview was great! Might be a ALW fan after that. Classy and professional

[@BGK2223]

ALW cross-court shots are so often untouchable!

[@DanKaschel]

Fahey was pretty outclassed this match, so i give her a lot of respect for showing signs of life in game 2. It must be so easy to mentally check out in that scenario but she fought the whole time. Hope to see more of her.

[@TheMary0831]

Yeah that has to be really humiliating, even though everyone's been pickled at one time or another. Even the pro's.

[@michaelshekianphotography6378]

she handles herself so well both on and off the court, she's a great role model

[@SN-95]

ALDub sure seems to have matured a bit and the first sign is to acknowledge the mistakes and work on it ❤❤

[@DanKaschel]

Man that statement in the end was such a great display of humility. Love seeing that instead of doubling down and making bad behavior part of her personality.

[@janinemurdock2043]

I only started playing pickleball a couple months ago, and I have kept hearing about how dominant the Johns brothers are, but it seems to me like ALW is much more dominant respectively

[@federicotown8052]

Anna Leigh Waters too good !

[@nn-NeuralNetwork]

AL hits the ball so hard it’s ridiculous.

[@anthonyng8800]

No look paddle tap by kate haha

[@johntellmewhy]

Congratulations ALW!

[@pennylainetv]

#garyvee nice advice! ALW is amazing! Kate Fahey has a great future in this sport-FUN TO WATCH!

[@anupshah9779]

You saying that based on this match?

[@anupshah9779]

Yes, she has a great history in tennis and so do all the young newcomers in pickleball. Of course she is talented that is why she reaches here. But this is probably her first pro league match against ALW.

[@anupshah9779]

I am yet to see someone with the same if not more stamina, court coverage, precise depth/angle combination, strategy and placement all together as ALW.

[@jacobgreenmusic]

[@SN-95]

@@anupshah9779AL is a once in a generation prodigy. We can not compare normal players with them. There are prodigies and then there are good players. We are lucky that we are seeing a legend in making right when the sport is also taking off. Its just like Sachin in cricket or phelps in swimming or graf and federer in tennis. They are above any mormal records

[@OneMoreTag]

Way to go ALDub. "The ankle bone's connected to the...Champion."

[@DanKaschel]

I've had a near miss on the ankle during a tourney before... Let's just say I did not handle it nearly as well.

[@zac1483]

Screaming after every point loses its emphasis. ALW is a beast though

[@DanKaschel]

It's a way to release energy between points so it doesn't carry into the next point.

[@branjohnson]

Why didnt kate get a point @7:00 ?

[@gabeanderson8816]

Next, let’s film from 1 mile away. I can see too much of what looks like pickleball players. Also, when someone is killing their serve, let’s overlay cutscenes while they serve so we can’t see how the point plays out at a critical 5-5 point in the game.

Brutal game. Someone needs to show Anna some colours.

[@TheMary0831]

Why is the singles championship only 2 out of 3 rather than 3 out of 5 like all the rest?

[@TotshotAirsoft]

You play potentially three games of singles in a row at this level. This is super taxing.

[@zachcarmichael699]

More physically demanding compared to doubles since you're covering the entire court yourself. Personally I wish doubles would go back to best of 3 in the finals like it was a couple years ago...best of 5 is boring.

[@jacobgreenmusic]

15 minutes isn’t demanding 😆

[@TheMary0831]

@@TotshotAirsoft Yes but these are professional athletes. I can play 2 games, how can they not play 3-4?

I really do not like this commentator of the Match. Can you please have other commentators commentate on these matches. I hate how He thinks he knows what the players are thinking. Just stick to the facts as far as annoucing the game and stop giving us your personal perspective of what you think. I also do not like how he trys to create drama. I also do not like his negative comments towards ALW. It also makes me mad that because most people are losers rather then winners that they want ALW to lose rather than win. I think most people will never truly appreciate how great and dominate of a player ALW really is; not only in Picklleball but as an athlete. It is also upsetting that everytime she plays people want her to lose which makes then a loser. My hope is that she never loses and continues to destroy ALL of her opponents. A loser wants her to lose because she is so good and they cannot stand that and a winner wants her to always win. No one will ever be as good and dominate as her or Ben Johns as athletes, period.

[@uviewer714]

What's with the low quality video? I would have loved to have seen what this match really looked like, but I'm not wasting my time with this poor representation of it. My apologies to the players, you deserve better than this. Thumbs down.

[@BGK2223]

Missed some great play!

[@DanKaschel]

I don't understand why the quality is always so bad. The crazy thing to me is, it's not the cameras! You can see that the overlay has heavy compression artifacts when it should be perfectly crisp. The aliasing on the court lines is crazy. They literally shimmer. I'd love to see whatever ridiculous production pipeline is producing these awful results. I know it doesn't bother a lot of people but I have to skip solidly half of the videos I want to watch just because the video is unwatchable for me.

[@chrispaul1117]

why even watch? waters just dominates all women

[@tombarca100]

the screaming by these women when they win a point is so obnoxious

[@gabeanderson8816]

Stop watching then. Problem solved.

[@DanKaschel]

I don't find them obnoxious, but I do find your comment obnoxious. I guess it's a matter of taste.

[@tombarca100]

@@DanKaschel you won't hear Ben Johns screaming like a jackass throughout the match. Yes it is a matter of taste; I think they need to learn some sportsmanship. Smacking her leg with the paddle--

[@DanKaschel]

@@tombarca100 I notice that you strategically chose the chillest, best-behaved player in pickleball. Maybe in any sport. I also notice that you're comparing player personalities as if one is inherently better than the other because of your random preference.

[@tombarca100]

@@DanKaschel No. Let's move to tennis. Do you see Djokovich...or Sinner....or any other top play yelling YES after every point.

[@winonebud]

She got a bit greedy, trying to double pickle her opponent. As she gets older, she should let certain points go to preserve her health.

[@Mary-gr3mr]

this wasn't enjoyable to watch

[@cohanitay5640]

LOL. Womens Pickle ball is just as boring as Womens Tennis. What's the point of playing pickle if you just playing it like tennis 🤷‍♂
