It’s the Olympic Games – I can’t possibly have any negativity. It’s the pinnacle of our sport and I’m loving it.” Then, Scott continued “The standards I set for myself and what I want to achieve is higher than any external pressure that anyone could put on,” and said, “I’m relaxed because I thoroughly trust the processes my coach has put in place.” Later, he concluded the statement with “For 14 days prior to flying out here, I’ve pretty much been going from the pool back to my flat and that’s it, but in all honesty, I’ve been doing that through the whole of Covid anyway just to lower my risk.”
