This win serves as a reminder to all those young girls in our nation that hard work, determination and the right amount of luck can put them in position to be champions. And not just champions in sports. Not all will be blessed with the physi- cal talents to make them successes on the field of play, but their individual gifts, paired with effort and energy, could one day make them lawyers, doc- tors or even the leader of the free world. Congratulations to the U.S. Women. And “thank you” for proving to girls all over the nation that they have every reason to believe they, too, can become a champion in life one day.
