RIO DE JANEIRO -- Kayla Harrisons mother, Jeannie Yazell, stood outside the judo arena early Thursday evening, beaming with pride and joy after watching her daughter earn a second Olympic gold medal in the sport. Yazell also wore a T-shirt bearing Harrisons image and the word FEARLESS in capital letters.Being fearless is an important thing for Harrison, not just on the mat but everywhere. Especially after all she has been through.Our family is extremely competitive, even playing a game of Uno, Yazell said. She is extremely competitive. Her fearlessness comes from every adversity that she has been through -- and she has been through so much adversity that no one can break her. These girls are tough, but there wasnt anything that could break her mentally coming into these Games.Or during the Games, either.Harrison won her second gold medal Thursday, beating Frances Audrey Tcheumeo in the 78-kilogram division final. Harrison cried four years ago in London after becoming the first American -- female or male -- to win Olympic gold in judo, but she was all smiles this time.The first time I won gold I cried because I couldnt believe it. I couldnt believe I was Olympic champion, the first ever for the United States, she said. And this time around I was a woman on a mission. I wanted to retain my title. I knew it was going to be a long hard road, and I am happy. There will be no sad tears from me for a long, long time.Harrison has had many times to cry in her life. Not only did her father die a few years ago, but she was sexually abused by her judo coach for several years from at least age 12 (the coach was sentenced to 10 years in prison). Because of that abuse, Yazell said, Harrison was moved from the family home in Ohio to Massachusetts to help her get away from that horror.Once there, she began working with two highly respected coaches, Jim Pedro and his son Jimmy, who is a two-time Olympic bronze medalist in judo. They helped make her the champion she is today.Shes a young lady that has overcome such adversity in her life that no judo match can compare to what shes been through, Jimmy Pedro said. As an athlete, she always gives 100 percent and does everything thats expected of her. She listens, she adapts, she can follow a game plan. She never skips a workout. She is as dedicated as they come, and she is as tough as any athlete Ive ever been with.With two gold medals, Harrison says she will retire from competition -- What else is there for me to do in judo? -- and try to grow the sport. More importantly, she also will focus more on helping sexually abused children and adults to cope with the trauma. After the London Olympics, she started the Fearless Foundation for that purpose.I set up the foundation to try and help survivors of sexual abuse through education, through sports, she said. There is a lot of stuff going on, and its just in its infancy. Being a two-time Olympic champion is an amazing thing, but the Fearless Foundation isnt about me; its about helping people who need help. And essentially being to someone else what the Pedros were to me. They saved my life and changed my life.They also taught her to not be afraid, despite all she had experienced.When I talk to them, they tell me, Kayla Harrison, be fearless. Unleash, and you will be Olympic champion, she said. And I want young boys and young girls to feel fearless and to know there is a light at the end of the tunnel and there is a shining gold medal.Maybe even two.

Max Verstappen said it would be better to replace Austrias kerbs with walls after labelling them dangerous during the first day of practice in Spielberg.Verstappen endured a frustrating FP1 at the Red Bull Ring after having two run-ins with the baguette-like kerbs on the edge of various corners. The first off was at the penultimate corner and cost him a piece of his endplate before a more hefty collision at Turn 5 damaged his front suspension.The teenager vented his frustration over the radio and took his criticism a step further after the days practice sessions we finished.The problem is, I understand we have to respect the track limits, but its better to put a wall there, because then I destroyed two front wings and front suspension, he said. I think its a bit too high. But at the other end we have to stay off them as well.Asked what his conclusion from the opening day had been, he laughed and said: The kerbs are very high, thats my conclusion! And hard for the car. After that, of course I lost a bit of time because of the damage. I think the car is in good shape, we are a little bitt better than expected here, so its not too bad.dddddddddddd Not a bad day.Verstappens viewpoint was not shared by Red Bull teammate Daniel Ricciardo, who thinks the kerbs did their job of punishing a driver for a mistake.I dont think they were dangerous, I actually think they are quite good, the Australian said. Youre going off the track and at least youre paying a penalty. We talked a bit yesterday in the press conference about liking street circuits because if you make a mistake normally your race it over. With modern circuits its hard to just put a wall everywhere and still make it safe.So the yellow kerb worked really well today because in the end it was a mistake from Max. It damaged his car quite a bit, probably more than he expected, but at least it was black or whi
