"I have a platform and I want to use it to glorify Him, and so whenever I step on the track, it's always the prayer of 'God, let me be the vessel in which you're glorified' whatever the result is, how I conduct myself, how I carry myself, not just how I perform.”
“So it's just freedom in knowing that regardless of what happens, He's going to get the praise through me. And yeah, that's why I do what I do.”
Sydney has always been intentional about propagating her faith through the platform her exceptional athletic abilities have given her. She has maintained the same theme in previous interviews, glorifying God and dedicating her victory to him.
