VIDEO | It was not her day: The best gymnast in the world disappointed the Americans
To Simone Biles, who is considered to be the best gymnast in the world, she was not at the Olympic Games in Paris.
The American "managed" to "gamble" two gold medals. In the grounder discipline Rebecca Andrade she won a gold medal, which was her fourth at these Olympic Games. The Brazilian collected 14.166 points and thus surprised the favored Biles, who achieved a result of 14.144 and it was only enough for the second place. He finished in the third position Jordan Chiles.
Biles was also the favorite on beam, but she did not reach the gold medal here either. The gold in this discipline belonged to the Italian woman Alicia D'Amato from Italy, won silver Ku Yakin from China, while another Italian gymnast reached the bronze, Manila D'Esposito. In this discipline, Biles finished in fifth position because he fell off the beam.
The best gymnast in the world has a total of seven gold medals, three of which are from Paris, in individual and team all-around and vault.
