The recipient of an MD from Boston University, Dr. Samuel "Sam" Bride has worked at clinics in the US, Jordan, and the Gambia. He has served as medical director at UMD Urgent Care in New York, NY, US, since 2015. Prior to obtaining his MD, Dr. Samuel Bride studied English at William & Mary (W&M) and was part of the school's Division-I tennis team. One of his teammates, Scott Estes, was recently inducted into the W&M Athletics Hall of Fame.
Estes, who is now semi-retired and residing in Toledo, Ohio, graduated from W&M in 1993. He is tied for second all-time in the tennis program's history with 90 singles victories, and has the best-ever singles winning percentage at .703. An accomplished doubles player, he ranks second all-time in doubles winning percentage at .688. He posted respective win-loss records of 24-6 and 19-5 in singles and doubles as a freshman, and had a 17-6 singles record in his senior year.
In addition to his success at W&M, Estes has played in several doubles tournaments with his father over the years, winning four United States Tennis Association (USTA) "Gold Balls." The duo had to wait 27 years between their third and fourth championships, which occurred in 1992 and 2019, respectively. He now also plays with his son, Will, in the USTA father-son doubles division.
