Amanda Sobhy is the highest ranked American born squash player ever. She is the first US player to win a world championship title, which she did on her 17th birthday at the 2010 world junior championships. She graduated from Harvard University in 2015 with a remarkable 62-0 undefeated college career, three team titles, and four individual titles.

As a professional squash player, Amanda reached a career high of world No. 3 in 2021, making her the first American player ever to crack the top 3 in the world rankings. She has captured twenty titles on the PSA World Tour, and has won six US Women’s National titles. Amanda represented Team USA in three Pan-American Games (winning seven gold medals and two silver medals). She also represented Team USA in five World Team Championships.

Outside of the squash court, Amanda is an inspirational speaker who uses her story about overcoming adversity and setbacks as a professional athlete to inspire others. Amanda ruptured her left Achilles in 2017 and her right achilles in late 2023. Amanda also spent a decade struggling privately with an eating disorder.

Amanda serves on the board of the Professional Squash Association, Squash & Education Alliance, and USSquash, and is an ambassador for the recently launched USSquash Foundation.

In the episode, Amanda talks to Hear Her Sports host Elizabeth Emery about her experiences with injury, recovery, rehab, and maintaining her mental strength.
