I also had multiple knee injuries in my gymnastics life and because my mum had financial issues I had to stop doing gymnastics because I was scared that the injuries would lead to a bigger problem. I sprained and dislocated my knee 8 times with out going to a physical therapist.So I just get injured get healed go back get injured and repeat. It was hard for me because I thought I had a problem and felt humiliated every time I went to the gym because I thought of my self as the injured girl who always came to gymnastics to get injured and leave . So now I am trying to forget everything about gymnastics and moving on with life .😅

I thought Jennifer Khwela was the first SA gymnast who won a World Cup medal when she won vault gold at the Doha World Cup In 2010?

This is not true as Zandre Labuschagne from Klerksdorp school of gymnastics already represented South Africa at the Olympics.

It is the first time a South African artistic woman has qualified at the World Championships for the Olympics without utilising the African continental birth

Hectic, as an inspiring athlete myself, i guess I need to get proper medical aid. All those injuries, Lord. How does the body even fully recover? This lady really has a strong willpower!

Caitlin is incredibly mature for her age, eloquent, composed, focused, determined and an absolute goal smasher! What an inspiration to young women she is! This was such a beautiful interview.
