Youngs, originally from El Toro, Calif., won a Bronze in 2004. In 2006, Youngs became the third American woman to surpass $1 million in career earnings. She won more money than any other player on the 2007 AVP Crocs Tour after collecting four victories, including the coveted Goddess of the Beach title. Youngs? latest partner (her third in three years) is former Big Ten Player of the Year Nicole Branagh. Youngs and Branagh joined forces just last year, but they've already proven to be formidable foes for the living legends in this sport: Kerri Walsh and Misty May-Treanor.
