Victoria Duval (born 30 November 1995) is an American professional tennis player. Duval has won one singles and one doubles title on the ITF tour in her career. On 4 August 2014, she reached her best singles ranking of world number 87. ==Early life== Duval was born in Miami and spent some of her childhood in Haiti, including time training at the JOTAC Tennis Academy in Port-au-Prince. While living in Port-au-Prince, Duval was robbed at gunpoint and held hostage at her aunt's house at the age of 7. Victoria's mother gave up her neonatal practice and moved Victoria and her two brothers to south Florida. Her father stayed behind to continue the gynecology and obstetrics practice he had helped build in Port-au-Prince.〔http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/more-sports/american-teen-victoria-duval-true-survivor-tennis-match-wimbledon-life-article-1.160499〕 To continue improving Vicky's tennis game, Nadine moved with her to Atlanta. It was here that she worked with coach Brian de Villiers, at the Racquet Club of the South. In January 2010, Vicky was training in Atlanta when a terrible earthquake struck Haiti and her father was trapped under collapsing walls outside his home for 11 hours. After he regained consciousness he was able to dig himself out of the rubble. His legs were broken, his left arm was crushed, he had seven fractured ribs puncturing his lungs, and an infection spreading throughout his body. He survived an emergency operation in his own backyard. A wealthy Atlanta family connected to the tennis club donated enough money to have him airlifted to a Fort Lauderdale hospital.〔〔http://www.theguardian.com/sport/2013/aug/28/victoria-duval-haiti-us-open〕
