Team USA’s Sabrina Sobhy set a new career milestone by winning the PSA Bronze St. James Open title as an unseeded player in what is her biggest PSA title to date Sunday, November 9, in Springfield, Virginia.
The title is an important step on the twenty-eight-year-old’s return to form and ranking after missing the majority of the 2024-2025 campaign due to injury. Sobhy entered this season with a pinned ranking, but fell outside of the world’s top 100 once it dropped off.
Sobhy has started her climb back up the world rankings following a U.S. Open second round appearance and entered the St. James Open unseeded as world No. 66. and progressed to the finals without dropping a game, including a 3-0 quarterfinal win against two seed and fellow Harvard graduate Hana Moataz.
Sobhy met Hong Kong international and Columbia senior Chan Sin Yuk, who also reached the final as an unseeded player, including a first round upset over Team USA’s top seed Marina Stefanoni. Sobhy went on to clinch the title 11-3, 11-7, 11-13, 11-6 in forty-one minutes.
