Pickleball’s brightest star, Anna Leigh Waters, has added another accolade to her growing list—this time off the court. The world No. 1 has been unveiled as the new Global Sports Ambassador for IAM Worldwide, a partnership that brings together one of the sport’s most recognisable names with a health and wellness brand eager to expand its global reach.
Waters’ rise has mirrored pickleball’s own surge in popularity, with the sport now attracting youth, elite athletes, and celebrities across continents. In the Philippines, the fever has taken hold, with courts springing up across Metro Manila and existing venues being repurposed to meet demand.
For IAM Worldwide, Waters represents more than just sporting excellence. Her discipline, consistency, and relentless drive embody the company’s ethos of purpose‑driven success. “Partnering with IAM Worldwide felt entirely natural for me,” Waters explained. “Everything I do on and off the court comes down to focus, discipline, and performing at my best. I truly believe in what IAM Worldwide stands for—performance powered by purpose and wellness.”
Anna Leigh Waters Is Championing Wellness
As the brand’s first global sports ambassador, Waters will front IAM Worldwide’s flagship product, the IAM Amazing Organic Barley Gummies. Designed to deliver natural vitality and daily support, the product aims to bridge the gap between elite performance and everyday wellness.
IAM Worldwide, in its official statement, emphasised the significance of the collaboration: “Anna Leigh represents the absolute pinnacle of dedication, athletic achievement, and integrity. Her mindset perfectly mirrors our belief that real success is built on a foundation of health and intentional purpose.”

The partnership is not just about product promotion—it is about shaping a message. Together, Anna Leigh Waters and IAM Worldwide are advocating that true wealth lies in health. For aspiring athletes and everyday enthusiasts alike, the collaboration serves as a reminder that success begins with well‑being.
With IAM Worldwide expanding its global footprint, this milestone signals a new chapter. Fans can expect activations, announcements, and live experiences in the months ahead, as Waters continues to inspire both on the court and beyond it.
