P. Casey is excited to compete at Tokyo 2020 and shared his excitement by saying, “I’m really proud, that’s the coolest thing. I’ve given this a lot of thought. Absolutely no anxiety was present, only excitement.

It’s never about medals, and Team GB will never put pressure on you to get one. Not once has it been stressed how urgent it is that we deliver. But you get the sense that the other athletes are raising the bar, and that makes me want to raise mine as well.

Conclusion

As P. Casey gets ready to compete in The Open and the Tokyo 2020 Olympics in the span of a few weeks, he says he would never say no to the chance to compete for Great Britain. The 43-year-old Englishman is in fine form, having placed in the top 10 at two of the year’s three majors.
