Amanda Carreras

Amanda Carreras (born 16 May 1990) is an inactive British tennis player from Gibraltar.

Carreras has won 11 singles and 15 doubles titles on the ITF Women's Circuit. On 24 April 2017, she reached her best singles ranking of world No. 236, and peaked at No. 279 in the doubles rankings.

Due to Carreras winning her first two singles and doubles titles back-to-back, the ITF website wrote a "Spotlight On…" article on Carreras in May 2009.

On 24 July 2012, Carreras carried the Olympic flame in the torch relay in Ealing, London. Nicola Bosio (another Gibraltarian athlete) passed on the flame to Amanda who was described as one of Gibraltar's finest sportswomen.

The three additional gold medals, she won at her home Island Games in 2019, pushed her total up to nine medals, eight of them gold, and made her the most decorated athlete in the history of the games. As well as this, she holds a 12–0 record in singles and has won half of all her singles matches without the loss of a single game, twice in 2011, and in all four of her matches in 2019.

With a total of 401 singles match-wins, Carreras is ranked fourth all time amongst female British tennis players, and second amongst active players for most single wins. As well as 353 of those wins being on clay, she has won more matches on the surface out of any British player, male or female. With this impressive feat it is surprising, she has never been nominated to play in a Fed Cup tie, especially given the GB is 0–3 in Fed Cup ties since Carreras professional debut back in 2008 and has a win/loss total of 4–9 on clay.
