Article on Emma Murphy in the Evening Echo
A recent edition of The Evening Echo featured the following article by Noel Spillane on St. Finbarr’s runner Emma Murphy.
NICKNAMED the Fighting Viking on the US collegiate circuit because of her blond hair, Emma Murphy from Kenley Drive off the Model Farm Road has fond memories of her time in California.
She was on a $50,000-a-year tennis scholarship to the University of San Diego, was ranked number one on the college tennis team and won the “best player” in the state two years running.
As she says herself: “We were treated like royalty in America.”
After college she played professionally for a year, travelled around the States earning ranking points and getting into some good tournaments.
“The highlight of my pro career was winning a wild card to play in the $100,000 Acura Classic in San Diego.
“I lost in the first round to the 78th ranked player in the world, 7-5, 7-5 but it was one of the highlights for me to be rubbing shoulders with some of the tennis elite.
“Obviously playing Federation Cup for Ireland was a great experience too, we won our group much to the delight of our captain Gary Cahill.
