Deena Mapple (born Deena Brush March 2, 1960) is a retired American competitive water skier. She is regarded to be one of the greatest female water skiers of her generation. Her Grand Slam Victory in 1987 - overall wins in the World Championships, U.S. Nationals, U.S. Masters and the Pro Tour - made her one of two athletes to ever accomplish the feat. She remains the only American to earn membership to the United States Waterskiing Team seven consecutive times.[1]
In 1987, Brush married Andy Mapple, who would eventually be a six-time world water skiing champion,[2] and a 14 time Masters Slalom Champion himself. After the marriage, she variously became referred to as Deena Brush Mapple, Deena Brush-Mapple and Deena Mapple.
