Gilmour, who is currently sitting just outside the world’s top 20, knows edging up those rankings to earn a seeding will be crucial to her chances in France.
Having gone out after the group stages in her first two Olympics, reaching the quarter-finals this time is her aim.
“For me to get to a quarter-final of an Olympic Games, I’d be happy to say that I’ve done that,” she added.
“It’s all the same players, it’s the same court, it’s the same rackets, it’s the same net.
“The only thing that really changes is the prestige of it, but that’s such an outcome way to think of it.
“I need to remember that this is supposed to be fun. That will kind of take the edge off of those little big pressurised moments.”
