In a recent interview, she expressed her joy at not hearing \u2063the American national anthem on the first day of competition. Campbell, \u200cwho did not compete in Fukuoka, took a few jabs at the United \u200dStates, calling their swimmers &#8220;sore losers.&#8221; Despite China&#8217;s success in the gold \u200bmedal count, Campbell was thrilled to see the Americans take a back seat.<\/p>\n<p>According to Campbell, &#8220;Australia coming \u200dout on top of the world \u2062is one thing, but it\u200d is just so much sweeter beating\u200d America. The first night of competition,\u2063 we did not have to hear &#8216;Star-Spangled Banner&#8217; ring out through the stadium. I cannot tell you how happy that made me. If I hear that song again it will be too soon. Bring \u200con Paris (2024\u200b Olympics). That\u2019s all I have\u2062 to say to the U.S. Stop being sore losers.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She also complained about a U.S. team tradition of ringing a cowbell as team members walk\u2064 out \u2064for their events. \u2063Campbell said, &#8220;The U.S. have this internal cowbell they ring. As someone \u2063leaves to go to the\u200b competition pool, they ring out,\u200d &#8216;USA, USA.&#8217; I have never wanted \u200cto \u2064punch someone more\u200b and steal the \u2064cowbell. I really hope someone did.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>American Olympian Lilly King responded to Campbell&#8217;s comments on \u2063Twitter, defending her team&#8217;s support for their teammates. King said, &#8220;Sorry we aren&#8217;t so uptight \u2062we can&#8217;t cheer for our teammates as they walkout for events.\u200b See you \u200cin Paris.&#8221;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Sorry we aren&#8217;t so uptight we can&#8217;t cheer for our teammates as they walkout \u200cfor events\ud83d\udc40 See you in Paris\ud83e\udd70 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/wnt9Qe46GJ\">https:\/\/t.co\/wnt9Qe46GJ<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Lilly King \u2064(@_king_lil) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/_king_lil\/status\/1686403473154113536?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 1, 2023<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h3>United States Falls \u2062Short in Gold Medal Count<\/h3>\n<p>The\u200d 2023 World Aquatics Championships marked the first time \u200csince 2001 that the \u200cUnited States did \u200dnot top the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/united-states-wins-most-total-medals-at-tokyo-olympics-beats-out-china-for-most-gold-medals\/\" title=\"United States Wins Most Total Medals At Tokyo Olympics, Beats Out China For Most Gold Medals\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/watch-toyota-super-bowl-ads-strong-pro-life-message\/\" title=\"WATCH: Toyota Super Bowl Ad\u2019s Strong Pro-Life Message\">gold medal<\/a> count<\/a>.
