Passion is a huge prerequisite to winning. It makes you willing to jump through hoops, go through all the ups and downs and everything in between to reach your goal.

If you are not prepared, you cannot work out intensely. If you do not perform, you cannot get results, and if you can't do your best to recover, you won't get the benefits of your hard work.

Sometimes it's just the beer and bikinis that get people to come and watch, but it's the competition that's keeping them there.

Being a working mommy is something I've always wanted to be. My mother is my biggest role model and she showed me how to do it right.

We have to fight the entire time, we can't start at the end when it's getting down to crunch time. We can't leave anything on the floor.

I honestly feel like my job since I was 22 has been to be an Olympian.

I switched from indoor to beach I had been playing indoor for 12 years. And, to be honest, to make a living indoors you have to go overseas. I am such a family girl and just wanted to be home, so that didn't appeal to me.
