“I just want to crush it. I just want to leave no doubt,” he says.
After taking the win, Annie Thorisdottir is emotional backstage. She’s overjoyed to be the Fittest Woman on Earth, and she’s smiling, as always.
“It couldn’t have gone better. I’m so stoked about it,” she says.
Defending Games champion Graham Holmberg placed first, second, and fourth on the final three workouts and finished fourth overall.
“At the CrossFit Games and at the competitive level that this sport is getting to, you can’t have any mistakes early in the weekend,” he says.
“It was a fun, fun weekend,“ he continues, ”and I think the guy that was deserving of the title is going to be standing on the podium, right where he should be. Rich had a heck of a weekend, had a heck of a year training, and I’m happy for him.”
