Kimberly Brooke "Kim" Spradlin (born January 30, 1983) is a bridal shop owner from San Antonio, Texas, best known as the winner of 2012's ''Survivor: One World'' and the $1,000,000 prize. Spradlin was also named the Sprint "Player of the Season" as voted by the show's fans, winning her another $100,000. == ''Survivor: One World'' == In spite of being one of the quieter contestants of the season, Spradlin caught the attention of Alicia Rosa during the trek to the girl's camp because she posed as a strong player which forged her into Alicia's alliance along with Chelsea Meissner, Kat Edorsson, and Sabrina Thompson. Spradlin, and the rest of the Salani tribe then prospered, winning three consecutive challenges, and received free immunity when the Manono tribe decided to go to Tribal Council after winning the Day 11 Immunity Challenge. Following her victory at the final two Immunity Challenges, and the eliminations of Alicia and Christina, Spradlin found herself in the final three with Chelsea and Sabrina. Spradlin's quiet and effective strategy earned the respect of seven of nine Jury members, crowning her the as 24th Sole Survivor. Spradlin was awarded $1 million for winning the ''Survivor'' contest, and $100,000 more as the Sprint Player of the Season, awarded by viewer votes.〔 English professor Ellen Sorg compared Spradlin's ''Survivor'' win with the notable winning streak of Ken Jennings, a contestant on ''Jeopardy!'' in 2004. Sorg suggested that Jennings, though very knowledgeable on many topics, would not fare as well as Spradlin on ''Survivor'', because the ability to recall many facts is not as valuable in daily life as overall intelligence, which Spradlin demonstrated. Sorg said Spradlin won because of a combination of practical and interpersonal intelligence. Soon after winning the $1 million prize, Spradlin appeared on the CBS daytime talk show ''The Talk'', where she said she would use the money to improve her San Antonio bridal shop, and to take vacations. She also said she planned on being "generous" with family and friends.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kim Spradlin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
