With two prestigious Female Player of the Year awards from Tennis Canada under her belt, Marino has made a lasting impact on the tennis world.
Born on December 16, 1990, in Toronto, Ontario, Marino moved to Vancouver with her family at a young age. Her uncle, George Hungerford, a gold medalist in rowing at the 1964 Summer Olympics, inspired her to take up sports early on.

Marino's incredible talent was evident from the start. At just 14, she won the prestigious Stanley Park Open, becoming the tournament's youngest champion in 75 years. This early success paved the way for her professional career, which took off in 2005 when she played her first professional event at the 25k Vancouver Open.
In 2013, Marino took an indefinite break from tennis, citing mental health concerns and the pressures of competitive tennis. During her hiatus, she pursued higher education, studying English literature at the University of British Columbia and even joining the rowing team. Marino also became a certified Club Pro 1 coach at the UBC Tennis Centre.
Marino's personal life has been marked by significant milestones, including her uncle's Olympic success and her own brother's rowing achievements. Her family's rich sporting heritage has undoubtedly played a role in shaping her passion for tennis.
Marino's inspiring story has had a profound impact on Canadian tennis, encouraging young athletes to pursue their dreams. Her resilience in the face of adversity has made her a role model for many, transcending the world of tennis.
