Simone Biles has once again proven why she’s considered one of the greatest gymnasts of all time. Today, in Paris, she secured her sixth career gold medal, adding to her impressive collection of Olympic accolades. This latest victory came in the women’s gymnastics all-around competition, just days after she led Team USA to a gold medal in the team final.
Biles, a true GOAT (Greatest Of All Time) in the world of gymnastics, made a bold statement with her choice of jewelry during the medal ceremony. The athlete wore a silver goat-shaped pendant necklace, a nod to her well-deserved moniker. The win cemented Biles’s place as the most decorated American female gymnast in history and the U.S. gymnast with the most medals overall.
Her last gold medal win was back in 2016 at the Rio Olympics, making her recent performance all the more remarkable. The journey to this gold medal wasn’t without its challenges. Biles received an unusually low score on the uneven bars, but she bounced back with powerful performances on the balance beam and floor exercise. On the floor, Biles dazzled the crowd in a star-spangled leotard designed by GK Elite Sportswear. The patriotic leotards worn by Team USA were a sight to behold, with some featuring over 10,000 crystals.
Biles’s Olympic reign may not be over just yet. She has the opportunity to compete in individual-skill competitions in the coming days, potentially adding even more medals to her already extraordinary collection. If she does secure more medals, she might need a bigger goat necklace to hold them all!
