If I could play a singles match against anybody, it would be: Justin Henin-Hardenne...because she's just amazing

My favorite class at Emory and why: So far it has been my freshman seminar...it's what convinced me to go pre-med

The people who have helped me most at Emory are and why: The girls on the team and my friend Hannah who lives down the hall because we all became friends right when we got to school and it just made the transition to college that much easier having them here

Any pre-match rituals: I usually make sure I'm singing a song in my head when I go out on court

The sport I would be playing if I wasn’t playing tennis: I don't even know… I've never played anything but tennis

If I could have dinner with only three people in history, they would be: My grandmother, Walt Disney, Johnny Depp dressed as a pirate

The best advice I have ever been given and who gave it to you: “It doesn't matter what you do in life as long as you're sure you'll wake up the next morning and be ok with it”
- From my tennis coach back home, Fritz

What is something that very few, if any, people know about you:  Well there is probably a reason not many people know about it now isn't there?

Sabra is a freshman from Charleston, SC. She would love to answer e-mail questions from Emory recruits and fans.
