Now that's the GOAT, imo.

I remember that like it was yesterday. But then again, they seem to always show that clip from time to time, so it's kinda hard to forget. lol

I think of all the talk about her being the "GOAT", and the expectation of her performing well and winning gold, got to her.

Yep she got a case of the Yips at the worst time.  It's odd that it's going around, because Osaka lost in the first round of the women's tennis.  Even the best lose at times so it's something that you just have to get used to.  I know they have higher expectations of theirselves.

Not the best example. Her coach made her do it and she was never able to compete again. Things could have definitely ended badly. By the way, she did not have to compete in order for the U.S. to get the gold. All in all she had no choice.
