Dafne Schippers

"You run a good race, you win and it’s one of the most amazing moments of your life and then you face the questions. It’s very hard.”"

"If you don’t have the mentality you won’t win."

"You might not win the start but you can win the race."

"The sprinters are more like gladiators but I don’t really miss the heptathlon. I like to beat the tough girls."

"When they line up it's just eight women that want to run fast, that's it."
