Bol bok bok bagok
Quit- just as Osaka did- meanwhile the media assists in her self righteous “ it’s my mental health” - if you weren’t in a good place or could handle pressure then why suck up a spot and US $- loser generation , soft -abetted by WSJ n other BS msm
Good.
Self-inflicted
Jesus….
Epic brand management.
We get it! Stop talking about her!
Go Carey!! Go get it
USA! 🇺🇸 USA! 🇺🇸 USA! 🇺🇸
Here is wishing her nothing but the best going forward.
welp some people can handle competitive pressure and some can’t. No medals for her and she walks away to take care of herself. Move along to someone who can. You can’t be the thing you want if you can’t compete. Thems the breaks.
LET’S GO SUNI LEE
Do people actually care about the olympics?
She looks so tired. Likes she’s given her all and the tank is empty. Maybe the team didn’t taper down right.
