Simone Biles stormed to an incredible win in the all-around gymnastics final to win her sixth Olympic gold medal on Thursday.
Simone Biles underlined her greatness in Paris once again as she triumphed in the women's all-around final to win a sixth Olympic gold and second of the 2024 Games on Thursday. Just as she had in the women's team final two days ago, Biles closed the show with a soaring floor routine that confirmed her second gold medal of the Games by more than a point over her nearest rival, Rebeca Andrade of Brazil.
Even the best gymnast in the world can get things wrong occasionally, and after starting her final with a strong vault, Biles faltered on the bars, the only apparatus in which she has failed to reach the individual final later in the Games. There was an audible gasp from another celebrity-sprinkled audience - Kendall Jenner and NBA basketball star Steph Curry were in attendance - as she almost slipped in transition to the lower bar and missed a connection, scoring 13.733.
