Melanie Oudin
Melanie Oudin (born September 23, 1991) is an American tennis player and former world junior no. 2. She was a member of the American Fed Cup team from 2009 to 2011 and winner of the 2011 U.S. Open mixed doubles title, with fellow American player Jack Sock.
Oudin was propelled to stardom as a 17-year-old, in the middle of 2009, when she reached the round of 16 of the Wimbledon Championships, followed by a quarter-final at the US Open a month and a half later. She reached a career-high ranking of World No. 31 on April 19, 2010.
==Personal life==
Oudin, a Marietta, Georgia native, has a twin sister, Katherine, and a younger sister, Christina. Introduced to the sport at the age of seven alongside sister Katherine, it was clear Melanie had a gift. As Melanie continued to improve, her time spent on the court increased as well. In seventh grade, Melanie made the decision to homeschool, giving her more time on the practice courts and an opportunity to play more tournaments. In an article with Atlanta Magazine Oudin said, "If I was going to homeschool, I was going to try to go pro for sure”.〔()〕 While the decision proved to be very beneficial for her career, Oudin admits envying her twin sister's experiences at a regular school. She says her idol is Justine Henin because "she proved you don't have to be tall to win things."〔David Ornstein, ("Wimbledon day six as it happens" ) at ''BBC Sport'', June 27, 2009.〕 Her grandmother inspired her and her sister to play tennis when she gave them racquets and lessons when they were young.〔Chuck Culpepper, ("Melanie Oudin is a teen living a Wimbledon dream" ) in ''Los Angeles Times'', June 29, 2009.〕
