Zitat des Tages von Carly Patterson:
Well, first I have to make the team, of course.
Then after I saw the scoreboard that we were tied, I was really happy, because I really wanted to win.
Well, it's still another two-day competition, so it's really important to show that you're ready. Every meet is really important right now. You've got to keep showing you can hit.
If they did it like they did it in '96 or whenever, just picking it from one meet, what if someone had the meet of their life but they're not usually a good competitor? That could be really bad for the team. So, I think this is the best way.
I think we're all really strong and we just need to keep working really hard. If we go out there and do our best we'll win again. All we need to do is hit.
I think it helps me. You know, I've got two more meets under my belt, and that's always a good thing.
I think we all have had better days in competition.
The only thing I really, really want is for the U.S. to win again. Just to win another team gold. And, of course I would really want to win an all-around gold.
It just meant a lot because it's something I've always wanted to do. I've always wanted to be a Senior National Champ. I was Junior National Champ in 2002, so now to be the senior champ is great.
Yep, my body is doing good and everything feels good and I'm ready.
I thought I had gotten second, but I didn't, so I was really happy.
You never know what can happen. I feel like I have a pretty good chance, but you never know.
She said I did good and I think she was happy with what I did. She just wants me to get my higher Start Value vault, which I'll be competing at Trials and, hopefully, the Olympics.
I want to do it for myself. It's my goal and dream. All I can ask for is to get the chance and go out there and do the best I can, be as ready as I can.
Probably Romania and China and Russia. I think they're all working really hard to beat us right now.
