“One minute you're a developing athlete trying to get to the top, then the next minute you do well and win a medal somewhere, and then it's all foisted on you. You never know when it's going to happen. You don't think about the media side of things when you're a young athlete trying to do well.”
“What I lack in talent, I compensate with my willingness to grind it out. That's the secret of my life.”
