View Date:2024-12-23 14:31:03
Fresh off winning the all-around gold medal for the second time, further cementing her status as the greatest gymnast of all time, Simone Biles turns her focus on the individual disciplines.
It started Saturday when Biles, who has won nine Olympic gold medals, including two during the 2024 Paris Games, won the vault. She has already surpassed her gold count during her Olympics appearance in Tokyo in 2021, when she withdrew from the Games, but still won two medals, a silver in the team all-around and a bronze in balance beam.
Biles is also scheduled to compete Monday in the finals for the floor exercise and beam to complete her third Olympic Games.
