I'm very happy about this gold medal. I heard it was a record. I know I have four (gold) medals at home.

The decision will be made after Friday's medal ceremony or later about the 1,500.

It is a very beautiful feeling. I feel happy. It is simply dreamy to be part of such a team.

I'm extremely happy that I could win the gold medal. It's a special moment in my career.

Winning a gold medal is not easy but I believed in myself, especially over the last four years.

Breaking the world record in '92 was a very special personal moment, but I'd say my favorite moment as a decathlete was winning the Olympic gold medal.
