The defender spoke on the 'crazy' month in Paris in which the USWNT won their first title under Emma Hayes
The USWNT clinched its first gold medal since 2012 at the Paris Games, with Emma Hayes' side kicking off a new era of the team with a narrow win over Marta's Brazil. Fox played a key role in the tournament, starting all six games at right-back and proving as reliable as ever defensively. The eventual gold medalists conceded just two goals all tournament.
In an interview with Arsenal's in-house media, Fox talked about the Olympic campaign: "The Olympics was crazy and amazing in both ways. Playing every three days was a lot, but again, it makes it more special in terms of just how much work and how much effort we put in to get the win and to get the gold medal."
Fox signed for Arsenal in January 2024. She made eight appearances for the Gunners towards the end of the 2023-24 WSL season, but will be expected to be back in the fold as the London side continues its U.S. tour.
The right-back is expected to feature for Arsenal and Hayes' national team going forward. Her next opportunity for the USWNT will come in late October when they play a friendly against Iceland.
