He added: “I’ve been saying to them, look, the whole country is going to be watching you, because we will … that adds a little bit to the pressure, but they’re an incredible team of athletes going into this, and they’re full of hope, determination, but also I’ve really detected a calm confidence that they bring to what they do, which is, I think, that necessary added ingredient.”
