Minerva Glass (ミネルバ・グラス Mineruba Gurasu) is a character in the manga and anime franchise Detective Conan.
Background
The perfect and excellent tennis player from London, England. When she was younger she lived in Japan. She placed first in Wimbledon for five consecutive years. She was ranked Number 1 and was called the Grass Court Queen.
Her father was German and her mother was English. Her father and little sister died an a traffic accident eight years prior to the current storyline. She has a younger brother named Apollo. She was coached by Ares Ashley, who was coached by her father. Ares quit coaching Minerva (although he liked her) because he blamed himself for her dad's death, since the he had died in the traffic accident when he'd been on his way to watch Ares's match. This saddened Minerva greatly.
Plot overview
After four consecutive years of domination at Wimbledon, Minerva was once again involved in it, vying for the top spot. A murderer named Hades put a bomb in Wimbledon in order to get revenge on Minerva's mother, whom he blamed for losing all his possessions after he lost a bet that Minerva would win a certain tennis match, which led to his mother being unavle to have surgery, which resulted in her death (Minerva lost the match because her mother wasn't there to encourage her).
Minerva met Ran and later Ran and Kogoro. During the match, Minerva received a note from Hades telling her he was targeting her mother. She began placing her serves in certain order and places, leaving a message which Conan deciphered. Using his help, the culprit was caught, and Minerva won the match for the fifth consecutive year.
Minerva later met Ran and Kogoro at the airport before they left to go back to Japan.
