In an interview with NBC, Sydney McLaughlin Levrone spoke about her desire to represent the United States and her admiration for Paris ahead of the Olympics. The 24-year-old said that she wanted to be in better shape than she was at the Tokyo Olympics.

"I just want to be better than I was in Tokyo. Improve upon myself. I don't know what event I'll possibly be doing, but just represent Team USA very well," McLaughlin-Levrone told NBC as quoted by the Olympics.

"Paris is a dream come true. The stores, the roads, the cafes, all of it, it’s a dream. I love the fashion. Everybody here has amazing taste, and I just love to be able to see all the different looks, all the different designers. It’s just really cool to see the culture here," she added.

Sydney McLaughlin had a dream of an Olympic campaign in 2020 as she won two gold medals. The American won the 400m hurdles event by setting a then-world-record time of 51.46 seconds. She edged out her competitors Dalilah Muhammad (51.58 seconds) and Femke Bol (52.03 seconds)
