When it really mattered she boxed the best round of her life
That’s what the top 1% of athletes do
It’s what the elite do
A role model for so many young people in our country
So fortunate to witness this live https://t.co/7FMU7gIBq9

Incredible achievement by @Kelly64kg winning gold in @Tokyo2020 . She is one of the most like able, humble, charismatic and talented athletes we have ever produced. No doubt she will have inspired others to follow her lead #kellieharrington #Tokyo2020 pic.twitter.com/yiz3h3b3tL
