Winchester was the world champion in 2019 in the 55-kilogram weight class, and she said after her trials win that the hard work and hours on the mat has all paid off. "Yeah, I want to win, I want to win a gold medal and everything, but just going out there and fighting, it's just the fight that I enjoy," she said when asked about her goals once she gets to Tokyo.
The 28-year-old, who grew up in San Lorenzo, CA, wrote on Instagram: "This is only half the battle. We still got work to do, so buckle up because we are going to the Olympics babyyyyyyyyy."
