Winning in women's singles felt surreal. I felt that everything I had done - the hard work, the tough times - was all worth it.

Being an athlete, you know how to train and prepare your body for a performance and you're able to do it under pressure.

In terms of my career, having the gold definitely changed my life. The Olympics are different, you know? They're every four years and it's such a small group.

I'm kind of a homebody. My husband says I like to just stay home and do nothing, but that's just how I am.

There are two or three performances in your life that are absolutely on, where all the planets are lined up for you and you feel you're invincible.

Before turning pro, I would never have just left my skates sitting in the locker room unattended.
