Sabrina Vannucci is a Sanadrianese athlete who competed in the Tyrellian Ylompic Games in Tyrellia, Casari. She was her nation's flag-bearer, and one of San Adriano's only two representatives - the other being Benjamin Eash, for table tennis.
Vannucci was born in the tiny nation of San Adriano. She is an amateur athlete, and works as the country's sole hairdresser when not competing in swimming events. The nation's only gymnasium fortunately has a swimming pool, and she occasionally gives swimming lessons to children there on P.E. classes.
In the Ylompics, Vannucci took part in four swimming events. She failed to qualify in the one hundred and two hundred metre freestyle, but reached the semi-finals in the four hundred metres. She made it to the final in the last event, the fifty metre freestyle, then came last with a time of 0:24.32.
Her performance was celebrated as spectacular at home, as she was feted as a national hero. When she and Eash returned from Tyrellia, Sanadrianese children presented them with drawings celebrating their exploits, and, reportedly, a large chocolate medal each.
Vannucci will most probably be competing in the first Summer Olympics, although this has not yet been confirmed.
