BELGIUM: Simone Biles – after her comeback to the sport – said that winning her 20th gold medal on the world championship stage is “just as good as the first one.”
In the World Artistic Gymnastics Championship – which was held in Antwerp, Belgium – the US athlete, Biles, played a key role in a historic victory for her women’s team final.
It is worth mentioning here that the athlete from the US’s impressive floor performance ensured the US won its seventh consecutive world title in the women’s discipline, while Bile’s latest world title comes exactly after 10 years on the same venue where she won her first medal back in 2013.
“I think each and every time you are crowned world champion, it feels a little bit different,” Biles told media, after clinching her latest gold medal.
The three-time Olympian now retired gymnast – Dawes – said that she was enjoying watching the US team express themselves on the world championship event.
Simone Biles is set to participate in the women’s individual all-around final on coming Friday.
