Interesting bio, on few but good sources, no copyvio obvious. The hook is basically fine. I hear "female" less and less, perhaps think about that, in hook and article. I also think that she wrote about sports already for the school publication might be a nice extra. - In the article, there's a duplicate "career" in the Early para, and I am not happy with two sentences in a row beginning with "The couple". --Gerda Arendt (talk) 23:03, 27 March 2022 (UTC)- I approve the ALT (added later) also, and think it suffers less from abbreviation - I - in Germany - have no idea what ESPN stands for. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:03, 28 March 2022 (UTC)
