Amanda Sobhy
Description
Charismatic American Amanda Sobhy is one of the leading players on the PSA World Tour and looks set to battle at the top of the world rankings for years to come. She secured her first Tour title in January 2010 at the Liberty Bell Open and, after following that up with the Delaware State Open and the Racquet Club International, she became the first player to claim three tour titles as a 16-year-old. In June, she became the first player from the United States to win the World Junior Championship after defeating Nour El Tayeb in the showpiece event. In 2021, she reached the semi-finals of the El Gouna International Open, Allam British Open and Egyptian Open, and thanks to those results, Sobhy broke into the top three in the world rankings, becoming the first American woman to ever be a top three player in the sport. She ended 2022 by making the last four of the Singapore Open, before helping the United States quartet to a runners-up finish at the Women’s World Team Championship, the nation’s best ever result at the event. After making it to the quarterfinals at the J.P. Morgan Tournament of Champions and Cleveland Classic, Sobhy then reached the last four at the Black Ball Open. She followed that with her 20th tour title, as the American won the Canadian Women’s Open in Toronto. She also reached the semis of the British Open in a solid start to 2023.
