Simone Biles live updates: Biles leads all-around gymnastics standings at Paris Olympics 2024 despite injury scare…Full Details

Simone Biles finished her first day of competition at the Paris Olympics at the conclusion of the second subdivision of qualifications, but one of her signature skills made an appearance in Bercy Arena a bit later in subdivision three thanks to Panamanian gymnast Hillary Heron.Simone Biles live updates: Biles leads all-around gymnastics standings at Paris Olympics 2024 despite injury scare...Full Details

Heron began her floor routine with a double back layout with a half twist, also known as the Biles I, and became the first gymnast other than Biles to compete one of the U.S. star’s eponymous skills at an Olympic Games.

 

 

 

Heron’s routine also featured a double back layout as her second pass, a back layout with 1.5 twists through to a full-twisting front layout and a big double back pike to cap her performance.

 

 

She shared an emotional embrace with her coach after and received a 13.033.

 

The Biles I on floor was Biles’ first ever eponymous skill, named for her in the Code of Points after she performed it at 2013 World Championships, The four-time Olympic champion now has five total skills named after her: two on floor, two vaults and a balance beam dismount.

 

She also submitted an original skill on the uneven bars, which will be added to the Code of Points under her name if she successfully executes it in Paris. Biles did not attempt her new bars element during qualifications, but U.S. women’s gymnastics technical lead Chellsie Memmel said the plan is for Biles to do the skill later in her Olympic schedule.

 

USA Gymnastics technical coach Chellsie Memmel has praised the “outstanding” Simone Biles for her performance today despite her struggles with “her lower leg”.

 

Biles briefly left the floor earlier with what she said was “discomfort” in her left leg but was able to return before posting an impressive all-around score on her return to Olympic action.

 

A reminder: each score is a sum of two separate components — the execution score (E-score) and the difficulty score (D-score).

 

The E-score begins at a 10.0 for each gymnast and decreases throughout the routine as judges spot deductions. The D-score has no maximum value. The harder a gymnast’s routine, the higher his or her difficulty score.

 

At the elite level, most D-scores fall in the 5-7 point range. An E-score around an 8.00 is good while an E-score of 9.00 or higher is excellent. Scores on vault tend to be higher than other events. A score that is 15.000 or higher is exceptional.

 

And so that Simone Biles score of 15.300 on the vault — which comes in qualification and while she has strapping on her lower leg — is very, very impressive.

 

The top 8 gymnasts on each apparatus qualify to the apparatus finals. But again, only two per nation can get through.

 

Here are the top three on each apparatus after the first two subdivisions:

 

The top 24 gymnasts qualify to the All-Around Final. But only two are allowed per nation, so Jordan Chiles will miss out, to give an example, because she is behind both Simone Biles and Sunisa Lee.

 

Surprise, surprise: Simone Biles is top of all-around results in this subdivision.

 

She has the best individual scores in the vault (15.300) and floor (14.600). Algeria’s Kaylia Nemour is leading the way on the uneven bars (15.600) and Zhou Yaqin is beating Biles on the balance beam (14.866 to 14.733).

 

A reminder: each score is a sum of two separate components — the execution score (E-score) and the difficulty score (D-score).

 

The E-score begins at a 10.0 for each gymnast and decreases throughout the routine as judges spot deductions. The D-score has no maximum value. The harder a gymnast’s routine, the higher his or her difficulty score.

 

At the elite level, most D-scores fall in the 5-7 point range. An E-score around an 8.00 is good while an E-score of 9.00 or higher is excellent. Scores on vault tend to be higher than other events. A score that is 15.000 or higher is exceptional.

 

And so that Simone Biles score of 14.600 — which comes in qualification and while she has strapping on her lower leg — is very, very impressive.

 

Simone Biles briefly exited the competition floor inside Bercy Arena during the qualification round of the women’s gymnastics competition following what appeared to be a lower leg injury.

 

She was warming up — a double back layout with a half twist — on floor exercise when she took a few steps out of the landing and then walked off the floor. Biles then sat in a chair off to the side of the floor while a team doctor and her coaches spoke to her.

 

 

She indicated a spot on her leg and said “As soon as I took off, I felt it.” She added, “It’s right there on my calf. Right where I had that tear.”

 

In Conclusion

Biles then exited the arena but returned to get her ankle taped. She hit her routine in the anchor spot of Team USA’s floor lineup, earning a 14.600, though she was grimacing slightly on each landing. After her routine, she sat on the side of the podium to catch her breath and told her coach she was OK
