“I’m super excited,” stated Sharp. “It was a huge goal of mine and I put in a lot of work to make this happen.” “I knew the ball was in my court and I played terribly,” Sharp admitted. “The last few weeks I hit the ball worse than I had all year. I think making it to Paris was on my mind.” With the qualifying behind her, Sharp is now focused on trying to improve on her past two Olympic appearances. In her first visit in Rio, she finished 30th and in Tokyo she wound up in 49th spot. Neither of those performances were satisfactory, and she wants to play better.
