WOMENZSPORTS is hyped to share our kōrero with Napier's very own Emma Twigg! Sports journalist and rugby player Alice Soper sits down with the single sculler to chat about the pathways into rowing in New Zealand, how a boat (not an athlete) qualifies for the Olympics, and the possibility of Emma defending her 2021 Olympic Gold at the 2024 Paris Olympics. Emma also shares about the legacy she wants to leave off the water, and her current involvement with The Athletes' Cooperative in a lawsuit advocating for athlete rights, representation, and protections.
