The sport is growing exponentially, attracting players of all ages, capabilities and fitness levels. All you need is a paddle and away you go.
Anna Leigh Waters, age 18, is the reigning world No. 1 in singles, women’s doubles, and mixed doubles. She turned professional at just 12—the youngest in pickleball history—and has since amassed over 160 gold medals. Renowned for her explosive play, sharp technique, and fierce competitiveness, she achieved a 69-match singles winning streak in 2025. A sponsorship powerhouse, Anna Leigh earned more than $3 million in 2024 and became the first pickleball athlete to attend the ESPY Awards. Her success has led her to be considered the greatest pickleball player in the world.
Federico Staksrud is a cerebral, internationally ranked pro whose strategic prowess stems from a decorated tennis background and advanced education. After turning pro in 2021, he quickly ascended to become the #1 men’s singles player and #2 doubles player on the PPA Tour. In 2025 alone, he nearly hit a 74% win rate, amassing 590 career victories and 65 medals, while anchoring the Orlando Squeeze in Major League Pickleball. His analytical, adaptable style makes him a formidable competitor.
Ben Johns (born 1999) is the most accomplished player in professional pickleball, consistently ranked No. 1 in men’s and mixed doubles. He has earned over 120 professional titles, including a record 21 Triple Crowns, and achieved a 108-match winning streak in singles. Known for his strategic precision and consistency, Ben brings deep expertise in both the technical and mental aspects of the game, making him one of the sport’s leading ambassadors and educators.
Anna Bright has built her reputation not just on results, but on relentless determination and a competitive edge that few can match. A former Division I tennis player at UC Berkeley, she brought her fiery spirit and work ethic into pickleball in 2022 and rapidly established herself as one of the sport’s top doubles specialists. What sets Anna apart is her refusal to back down in high-pressure moments—she thrives in long exchanges at the net, digging in and turning defence into offence through sheer persistence. Her willingness to adapt, learn quickly, and push herself beyond comfort zones has allowed her to climb into the top tier of professional pickleball in just a few years.
Hayden Patriquin (a.k.a “Big H”) a dynamic 19-year-old pro based in Florida, has rapidly established himself in pickleball since turning pro in 2022. Without prior racquet sport experience, he quickly climbed to top rankings—currently #3 in men’s doubles and #5 in mixed doubles—powered by a standout two-handed backhand, blistering hand speed, and match-winning court IQ. With a 75 % win rate in 2025 Hayden combines flair, aggression, and athleticism with a passionate on-court presence.
Catherine Parenteau is known across the pickleball world for her unwavering professionalism both on and off the court. A former top Canadian tennis player who transitioned to pickleball in 2016, she quickly built a career defined not only by her skill but by her discipline and composure under pressure. Catherine approaches every match with meticulous preparation, attention to detail, and a respect for the sport that has earned her over 50 professional titles and multiple Triple Crowns. Her calm presence, combined with her ability to maintain focus in the most demanding situations, sets an example for aspiring players who want to balance competitive intensity with sportsmanship.
