US shot putter Michelle Carter won the 2016 Olympic title in Rio, beating the two-time defending champion Valerie Adams from New Zealand with a dramatic, final throw. It was the icing on the cake for the now 34-year old athlete after previously winning the 2016 World Indoors title and bronze at the 2015 World Championships. In an interview recorded after she won bronze again at the 2017 World Championships, Michelle talks to us about what it means to be Olympic champion, captaining the US team at the 2017 World Championships and the impact of her faith as a follower of Jesus Christ on her life and sport.
