Hunter Woodhall recently shared his experience of watching his wife Tara Davis-Woodhall compete at the 2024 Paris Olympics where the latter won the long jump gold medal for the United States. In a conversation during their time at Noah Lyles and Rai Benjamin's "Beyond the Records Podcast", Wodhall revealed that he feels tenser while watching his wife compete.

Additionally, he also mentioned that since the last year or so, Davis-Woodhall has performed well in her events which gives him the confidence to perform better in his races.

He said (45:55 onwards):

"It's always harder watching somebody else compete but I can't lie like ever since going through last year, she's got so good that I like it. I don't really have to worry that bad and I know she's like so disciplined, she's so on her thing so I'm like we're gonna perform well. Then our momentum is just build like she would go compete, kill it and that would give me the confidence."

Davis-Woodhall recently announced that she is looking to skip the indoor tournaments for the 2024 season. The couple also announced their change in sponsorship partner recently as they bid goodbye to Lululemon.
