Kentucky doctor competing on Season 51 of CBS’ ‘Survivor’ this fall
LOUISVILLE, Ky. —
A Kentucky doctor is trading the hospital for the island as she competes in the latest season of the CBS hit “Survivor.”
34-year-old Sharonda Cox is an OB-GYN resident who lives in Richmond.
Cox is one of the contestants currently competing on Season 51 of the longest-running reality competition, where castaways compete in challenges, form alliances and vote each other out while trying to become the Sole Survivor.
Cox told CBS that she plans to put her medical knowledge, tenacity and street smarts to the test.
She said she has spent much of her life doing things for other people and now she wants to take on something new herself.
“I’ve survived my entire life, and now it’s time for me to thrive,” she said.
“Survivor” airs each Wednesday at 8 p.m. ET, and you can watch it on WLKY.
