          Karin Korb (born 1967) is a retired Americanwheelchair tennis player of German parentage who competed in international level events. She has participated at the Summer Paralympics twice.

          She was the first disabled person to receive a Division I athletic scholarship to Georgia State University to play intercollegiate wheelchair tennis.[1][2] Prior to entering Georgia State and earning her master's degree there, Korb graduated with a bachelor's counterpart from Division III and thus non-scholarship Kean University in her birth state, New Jersey.[3]

          Raised in Clifton, New Jersey, she graduated from Clifton High School, where she was chosen as homecoming queen in her senior year.[4]

          Korb played tennis at the age of 27.[5&
