Gabby Thomas chooses violence with savage clap back at hater who wrote her off before Paris Olympics
American sprint queen Gabby Thomas has waited for three months before serving her revenge at a hater who wished her failure at the Paris Olympics to the delight of fans.
During an appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, she shared her long-standing passion for sports and the frustration she faced growing up as a girl discouraged from participating.
“Ever since I was a little kid, I always wanted to play sports. My brother could play,” she told Fallon, reminiscing about watching her brother take part in baseball, basketball, and softball while she was sidelined.
The actresses ambition to see women represented and celebrated in the sports world has only grown over the years, leading her to establish AWSN.
The network aims to be the world’s first 24/7 home for women’s sports, offering a revolutionary alternative to mainstream sports channels.
Unlike traditional networks AWSN promises full-time, all-access coverage of women’s sports, from live matches to in-depth features.
