On her body confidence:
“On a scale of one to 10, I’d rate my body confidence as a good seven.”

On loving her body the way it is:
“Everyone has their hang-ups, but I see my body as a training tool and I feel good about it. I’m pretty body confident, and I’m comfortable being naked.”

On her hopes for a gold medal:
"As you progress, your standards get higher. So for me, a silver medal is still a great achievement, but knowing I was so close to getting a gold (at the World Indoor Championships), and that I was capable of getting a gold, made it frustrating that I didn’t achieve that."

On the London Olympics:
“The Olympics is massive in itself, but for it to be at home means it’s not just sports fans watching. It’s everyone! I understand what people expect from me – I think it’s normal for the general public to be putting gold medals around your neck already because they want to see you do well. But I just try to keep things in perspective, stay focused on what I need to do and not get carried away.”
