Tara Davis-Woodhall speaks during the Team USA Media Summit in New York City.

Tara Davis-Woodhall recently reflected on suffering from body dysmorphia as a young athlete. She represented the United States of America at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, where she finished in sixth place.

Two years later, she secured a silver medal in the long jump at the 2023 WAC in Budapest. During the Team USA Media Summit, she looked back at the time she was suffering from body dysmorphia and shared an unpleasant experience she faced in school.

"Even in middle school, I wore a sweatshirt every single day because the boys would be like, 'You look like a boy with those muscles."

Taking inspiration from the 2023 World Champion Ivana Spanovic's physique, Woodhall recognized the importance of a muscular frame to achieve glory.

"When she was at the World Championships, I saw her body in a way I've never seen her body," she said. "It was fit. It was so muscular. It was so toned. I knew that is what it takes to become the best. I knew that I could just take my body to the next level and be okay with it," Woodhall added.

Tara Davis-Woodhall's recent exploits include bagging a gold medal at the 2024 World Athletics Indoor Championships in Glasgow.
