Not that I went into the Olympics with any doubt, but my holiday plans afterwards depended on how well I did - bronze, silver or gold.

Not a lot of people get to go to the Olympics - especially with the chance I've got.

To win Olympic gold has been a dream for me for seven or eight years now, so it was amazing to actually achieve that.

I have bronze in Beijing, silver in London, and now gold in Rio. It is the perfect story.

I'm not a cheater, but if I win Olympic gold and people are looking at me and saying I am a cheat because I've won, it's hugely disrespectful given the hard work I've put in.

I went 59.9 sec. when I was 18 and thought, 'Hmm, that was fast - let's see how much faster we can go and what the rest of the world can do to keep up.'
