In the inspiring finale of our six-part “Legends of the Cue” series with Kelly Fisher, MBE, we catch up with one of cue sports’ most decorated champions at the height of her enduring career. Still collecting titles more than three decades after first bursting onto the scene, Kelly reflects on what continues to drive her competitive fire — and when she might finally hang up the cue (spoiler: not anytime soon!).

Joined by fellow Hall of Famer Allison Fisher and hosts Mike Gonzalez and Mark Wilson, Kelly offers a candid look into her evolving role as both player and leader. She shares how her work on the World Pool-Billiard Association (WPA) Board and the British Pool Federation is shaping the sport’s future, including the dream of cue sports joining the 2032 Olympic Games in Brisbane. Kelly discusses the fast-rising global standard of play, the new generation of “young guns,” and her belief that the women’s game now stands strong enough to thrive entirely on its own.

Listeners will also hear personal insights into Kelly’s journey toward balance and well-being — from cutting back on alcohol and embracing “wall Pilates” to learning how to slow down amidst a whirlwind schedule. With warmth and humor, she answers fan questions, revisits career-defining shots she’d love to take again, and shares how she hopes to be remembered: as an honest, fair, and passionate ambassador for the game she loves.

This final chapter celebrates Kelly Fisher not only as a world champion but as a thoughtful leader and trailblazer ensuring the next generation inherits a stronger, more inclusive cue sport world.
