BREAKING NEWS :Simone Biles now has nine Olympic medals. Here’s a look at all of her wins.
Olympics gymnastics live updates: Simone Biles wins gold, Suni Lee bronze in women’s all-around final.
The Olympic gold medalist credited therapy for helping get her to gold. During a press conference following her win on Aug. 1, the gymnast told reporters that her day began with a session with her therapist.
“Even this morning at 7 a.m., I saw my therapist, and there’s a time change,” she told reporters. “So she is so amazing for allowing me to do that these (past) couple of days … I think you see that on the competition floor.”
Biles has spoken openly about turning to therapy as a tool in recent years. During a 2021 interview with TODAY’s Hoda Kotb, she reflected on how her struggles with mental health forced her to withdraw from multiple events at the 2021 Tokyo Olympics. She explained how therapy helped her to confront those challenges.
The Olympic champ showed off her gold medal and a goat necklace by Parisian jeweler Janet Heller Fine Jewelry.
In the moments just before their medals were announced, video showed the two gymnasts waiting with bated breath in a nearly silent stadium.
As their results appeared, the crowd applauded, and Lee shook the American flag. Biles was the first to take to the floor before being quickly joined by her teammate. The two celebrated as their lively audience clapped and shouted from the stadium.
With a gold medal in her hand, Biles waved from the top of the podium during the gymnastics all-around medal ceremony.
The 27-year-old stood next Brazilian gymnast Rebeca Andrade, who won silver, and her fellow U.S. gymnastics teammate Suni Lee, who took home a bronze medal.
The two members hugged after competing in the Artistic Gymnastics Women’s All-Around Final. The two gymnasts closed out their time at the games with a gold medal for Biles and a bronze for Lee.
The American gymnast and her Brazilian competitor embraced soon after Biles stuck her final landing at the 2024 Paris Olympics and wrapped her routine on the floor.
Simone Biles has reclaimed her place atop Olympic women’s gymnastics!
The Team USA star delivered a 15.066 in the floor exercise in one of the most pressure-packed performances of her legendary career to clinch the Olympic all-around gold over Brazil’s Rebeca Andrade by a margin of 1.100 points.
She is now a rare two-time all-around gold medalist and the first since 1968 after having previously won it in 2016 in Rio de Janeiro. The 27-year-old is also the oldest all-around champion since 1952 and the sixth straight U.S. gymnast to win the all-around gold medal dating back to 2004.
Biles now has 6 gold medals in her Olympic career, the most of any U.S. gymnast, male or female.
