British Olympic gold medalist Emily Campbell speaking to BBC Sport: “I’m very happy because I knew this was going to be a tough competition, I knew someone wasn’t going to hand it to me on a plate, I knew I was going to have to work for it, but I said, ‘whatever I needed to lift today to win this the gold medal, I would do it.”
“I hope people see how beautiful our sport is. Throughout the week you’ve seen, it doesn’t matter what you look like, what shape you are, what size you are, you can pick up a bar and do it. It’s not about coming to the Commonwealth Games or the Olympics it’s about doing something you love.
“We were in the training room at the back listening to the crowd all week and it was crazy, absolutely overwhelming. There was a full house today and the wristbands were flashing and everything was huge. It’s great to see real fans coming out to watch weightlifting, it’s all we’ve ever wanted.”
