I was completely surprised by it. The one time that I knew I had to talk to someone in the media was with 48 hours and that s because they had been covering our story since January. When all this was happening, Kay and I were the only ones in the holding area, both bawling, and the cameraman starts shooting. It s been a couple of months since the Olympics. I think she proved herself as an athlete.
All athletes have a good day and a bad day.
You can t win them all. I do that too. I think the fact that I m representing the US and representing my team creates a little more pressure. I always enjoy international competition. It s always a whole new learning experience.
