This is not a 'comeback,' so stop calling it that. Simone Biles secured four gold medals at the 2023 World Championships a few months ago, showcasing the continued rise of an already legendary athlete. Now, Simone has the chance to rewrite history by becoming the first female gymnast in 56 years to win a second Olympic all-around title. The last gymnast to achieve this milestone was Věra Čáslavská, who won in 1964 and 1968. Nadia Comaneci came close, winning gold in 1976 and silver in 1980. Simone also has her eyes set on the elusive balance beam gold that she missed in 2016 and 2020, earning bronze both times. Expect a sensational routine as she aims to add that missing gold to her collection.
As someone who went to every Georgia home meet in the 90s, I'm shocked that anyone was able to match Hope Spivey (27) from Georgia and Jenny Hansen (28) from Kentucky. I wonder if anyone will ever match Karin Lichey's perfect 40 in 1 meet.
Simone: UB, BB, FX, VT Shilese: UB, BB, FX,VT Carey: FX,VT Lee: UB,BB Fifth: Chiles if she can stay consistent. She has shown she can in high pressure situations. But if we really needed someone on Floor that’s an up and coming powerhouse.. I gotta go Lincoln.
Why do I like Shalese more than Simone? She's a lot more fun to watch. She has elements of style and elegance that the Champion lacks in her performance. In addition, she shows the minor details such as pointed toes, fine lines, and great sassiness on the floor. If she can pull an Amannar, I'm certain she can outperform Simone at the upcoming Olympics.
My team is simone, shilese, suni, leanne, and jordan, i dont think jade really contributes to anything, unless she upgrades to an amanar and a really dificult floo, but her execution needs to also be good, skye kinda lost her ticket in my opinion because she has shown that she is very inconsistent.
Kailya Lincoln’s floor would be scored much higher by Olympic judges than Jocelyn’s, she just doesn’t have the flexibility and straight leg look. Also what is up with our hand movements on beam? Just awkward.
Sorry to say this but , Now they need to give the chance to Trinity Thomas and Shelise Jones to shine in the Olympics , their Bars performance skills are better than Simone.
