"I was so disappointed that I couldn’t defend my title in New York last year (2022) due to an injury, and winning again in Central Park has been my main motivation as I begin my preparations for the autumn...New York is an important step in defending my Olympic gold medal next summer in Paris, and I will do my best to make my family and my country proud."
