The most-decorated gymnast of all time, Simone Biles has won 7 Olympic medals: 4 gold, 1 silver, and 2 bronze. At her first Olympics, the 2016 Games in Rio, Biles claimed 5 medals: 4 gold (team, all-around, vault, and floor exercise) and 1 bronze (balance beam). She next competed at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, where she was forced to withdraw from several events due to the “twisties,” a mental block in which gymnasts lose their spatial orientation during aerial moves. However, she still managed to win a silver in the team event and a bronze in the balance beam. In addition, she has also captured an unprecedented 30 world championship medals, of which 23 are gold.
