After your final skate, Tessa, you had one trickle of a tear coming down. Was it a tear of joy, a tear of happiness?
Tessa: “Sweat? [laughs] No, it was, um…it surprised me. There haven’t been many moments in our career when we’ve been celebrating that we’ve felt that sort of emotional pull, and I mean…I think it was just an acknowledgement of the team that got us there, of that comeback process, of investing everything into the work to get us to that one moment; and to have executed the programs the way we did together, and—honestly just being so proud of Scott. It’s sometimes easier to recognize our success when I see him as an athlete…just so proud of him and so excited for him.”
Scott: “When I think of that moment, it’s really quite a personal one. I know that’s kind of crazy; we shared it with all the Canadians, but it was really for us and about our journey. Tessa’s reaction, the one tear…that was for us.”
