Biography
Kinney grew up in Connecticut and attended Princeton University before turning professional.[1] In addition to tennis she also excelled at squash while at Princeton, earning All-Ivy selection for both sports.
On the professional tour, Kinney reached a highest singles ranking of 117 in the world. Her best performance on the WTA Tour was a quarter-final appearance at the 1986 Northern California Open held in Berkeley. She made the third round of the 1986 Wimbledon Championships, before running into top seed Martina Navratilova.[2]
gollark: Scuba diving seems neat. I'm doing a "discover scuba diving" thing next month (not sure exactly when, since I had my parents book it and forgot to ask...).

gollark: It's some bizarre Discord feature where people with nitro can provide "boosts" to a server, and if you get enough of them you can get extra things, but also the people can just randomly revoke them or boost something else and then you lose those things.
gollark: Apparently, yes.
gollark: The banner thing's gone too.
