Jennings and Ross look ahead to Rio

Saturday, September 06 2014 by SNTV
  • Intro:

    Three-time defending Olympic beach volleyball champion Kerri Walsh Jennings, and partner April Ross, an Olympic silver medallist, aim for their sixth win in as many events on the US-based pro tour but they already have Rio 2016 firmly in their sights.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE (English): Kerri Walsh Jennings (looks ahead to the 2016 Rio Olympics):

    "It's gonna be amazing in Rio, knock on wood, and I know it will be amazing. I believe that we have the tools in our hands to be the best in the world and when I think of it I think of it as it's gonna happen I take nothing for granted. I know we are gonna have to bleed and fight and outlast everybody and withstand some really tough moments. But I believe we're gonna get there and the plan is to win gold in Rio, and we have just under two years to become the best and to stay the best and then just go out there and play ball like we do best - and I can't wait to talk to you after Rio and to tell you how it feels."

    SOUNDBITE (English): April Ross (looks ahead to the Rio Olympics):

    "For sure, no yeah I think that's part of the mental preparation that's all, there will be a fight and we're gonna have to buckle down and do work the whole way, for sure. But when I picture the Olympics, I picture standing on top of the podium and the celebration and that's where I want to be so that's what I picture."
