As always, FCZ photographer Fabienne Humm (soon 37)? No, for once Zurich’s all-time goalscorer isn’t at the top of the Women’s Super League goalscorers list. Champion FCZ is also feeling the new headwind of increased competition in this division. Not only is long-term rival Servette on par with the somewhat weakening defending champions, but so are leaders Basel, YB and St. Gallen.
It is YB striker Courtney Strode (25) who stands above everyone in the Super League. The American from San Diego, California has been playing in Switzerland for years and is doing better than ever since returning to YB in the summer.
Strode played in yellow and black for two years from 2020, then spent the last season at FC Basel and has now returned to Bern. Because Strode plays for YB for the love of it. The American has been married to Rafael Liebermann from Bern for four years.
It happened in Hawaii. The Swiss ran a surfers camp, Strode spent holidays on the same beach. After spells in Sweden and France, the footballer ended up in Switzerland, although the couple initially had France in mind as their new home base. But Liebermann had difficulty with the language. So in 2020 we went to Bern, where Strode learned German. “My husband also teaches me a lot of nonsense,” she once told the “Berner Zeitung”.
Geographically speaking, Strode’s ending up in competitive sports in Switzerland could be due to love. But in principle no: because she comes from a real family of athletes. Father Charles Strode (66) was a tennis professional and was ranked 148th in the world in 1981. The mother was a professional surfer.
Under YB coach Imke Wübbenhorst (34), Strode is now more than ever one of the best players in the competition. The two have only been working together since this season because the American went to FCB when the Germans arrived, where she made a false start off the field. The devout Strode took to Instagram to celebrate the US abortion law, which was overturned in June 2022, calling abortions “genocide” and receiving a shitstorm.
It didn’t affect your performance. Will Strode even become a Nati topic? Her naturalization process is underway and she could receive her passport in a year. Six months before the European home championships.
