Anna Leigh Waters featured on billboard in Times Square
The New Jersey 5s aren't competing at MLP Phoenix this week, so Anna Leigh Waters and her parents had a little free time in their schedule for a special trip to New York City.
Stephen and Leigh Waters were on-site to see their daughter - and her remarkable achievements on the court - prominently featured on a digital billboard in one of the most iconic places on the planet: Times Square.
The 18-year-old superstar shared photos of the experience on Thursday via Instagram.
"Is this even real?!? Pickleball has given me so much and now I can say I have been on a billboard in TIMES SQUARE NYC!" wrote Waters. "I’m soaking up each and every moment. 🫶🥰"
It's a well-deserved honor for an athlete who has accomplished so much at such a young age.
And there's so much more to come.
