We've always had each other's backs in and out of competition. We support each other the most because we're the only ones that know what it's like to go through what we do, and so we can't be more thankful for each other. We're like sisters.

Sometimes it could be, but for me, it's hitting the best sets I can, gaining confidence, and having a good time and having fun.
