Mikaela Shiffrin wins Best Athlete, Women's Sports award | 2023 ESPYS (📍 ‪@CapitalOne‬)

And the SV goes to Michaela Schifrin. Okay, thank you, thank you guys. It's incredible to meet you. I mean sitting here in this room is like an insane amount of greatness. The iconic athletes and people, I just, it's such a pleasure and it's such an honor to be part of this event. Thank you ESPN for putting on a great show again like always and so great to meet everybody. And I just, honestly, I have like a whole stack of people that I would have to thank for literally getting me to where I am today through failure and through success. It's been a long journey and it's not over yet, but I really have to say thank you to my family. I have to say thank you to my friends, Alex, my brother, my sister-in-law, they're here tonight as well, my team, my coaches. This season was absolutely incredible and there was a lot of talk about records and it got me thinking why is a record actually important? And I just feel like it's not important to break records or reset records. It's important to set the tone for the next generation to inspire them and then inspiration that I feel just being in this room is a little bit overwhelming, so I think you can probably tell. So thank you for that and thank you to the fans for voting and I hope everybody has a really great night and congratulations to the nominees and winners. Thank you for watching ESPN on YouTube.
