With prompting, surfer Carissa Moore will tell you about her Olympic gold medal, her five world championships and her being seeded No. 1 for the 2022 Rip Curl WSL Finals in Southern California.
But as the season-ending event approached, she sounded just as happy to talk about what most surfers, and people in general, might prefer to hide.
“I have good days and bad days,’’ Moore, 30, told USA TODAY Sports, “and days when I have doubts and insecurities or start overthinking things.’’
Of course the good days include her winning a gold medal at the Tokyo Games last year in the first Olympic surfing competition.
