"She is a beast! She is not relying on the past, or, Oh, we won two national championships or two world championships! She’s like, ‘Nah, I’m gonna wear white T-shirts, y’all. Because I don’t think I have earned the right to get really dressed up," Cooper said.

 

I gotta roll up the sleeves and get back to work.’ That is the mentality of a winner! The mentality of a champion! The mentality of a player that wants to be great, that has not arrived! She knows she hasn’t arrived," Cooper concluded.
