Quitting? Let the coach pull her if her performance was hurting the team. That is what the coach is there for. But to quit because of the stress of not having your best day?
She embarrassed herself more by quitting than hanging in there to fight back from her mistakes or talking to her coach or team psychologist. Instead she puts on a big drama scene?
The problem when an athlete ‘quits’ is they never recover from it. Whatever is going on in her head, she is done. Endorsements for a little while, but she’s over.
Americans are fine with someone who loses, they will not tolerate a quitter.
Well, that is something I'd agree with. She hurt herself by dropping out. She might be able to rebound later, though.
