Biles, the world’s most decorated gymnast, returned for her third Olympics after she abruptly pulled out from the team final at the Tokyo Games suffering from the “twisties,” a term used to describe the temporary loss of spatial awareness while performing high-difficulty elements. She finished 1.866 points ahead of Brazil’s Rebeca Andrade with reigning Olympic champion Sunisa Lee of the US in third.
Biles shook off her sullen expression following the floor exercise, landing a stunning 15.800 on her signature double-piked Yurchenko vault, the Biles II.The gravity-defying vault is so difficult that its start value is several tenths of a point higher than any other vault that will be performed by female gymnasts at the Paris Games.
