Personal
In 2009, Sandra was driving back home from North Zealand when she lost control over her vehicle. At 10 pm, north of the city Give, the car spun off the road, flew 50 metres across a field and made four rollovers. Sandra survived the car crash, but suffered a severe neck vertebra collapse. Only five months later she was back on court for Team Tvis Holstebro. [citation needed]
