The American artistic gymnast Simone Biles found the perfect answer to anyone who calls her a “quitter”: She can’t hear you over her seven Olympic medals. The Olympic great took to Instagram over the weekend to reflect on the month that’s passed since the Tokyo Olympics. She also snuck in a few words for her critics.
“Definitely not the way I planned the Olympics going but I wouldn’t change anything for the world. I’m proud of myself and the career I’ve had thus far. this Olympics doesn’t erase the past accomplishments I’ve achieved nor does it define who I am as an athlete”, wrote Simone Biles, alongside a photo of her two medals from the Tokyo Games. “I’ve pushed through so much the past couple of years, the word quitter is not in my vocabulary. For some of you that may be how you define me but keep talking because I can’t hear you over my 7 Olympic medals which tied me for the most decorated gymnast EVER as well as most decorated American gymnast”, she continued.
At the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, the gymnastics superstar Simone Biles has decided to give up the competition due to mental health problems. She withdrew from the team competition but still took the silver medal, as she participated in the first of the devices – the jump.
Simone Biles is an American artistic gymnast. With a combined total of 32 Olympic and World Championship medals, she is tied as the most decorated gymnast of all time. Simone Biles’ seven Olympic medals also tie Shannon Miller for the most Olympic medals won by an American female gymnast. Simone Biles is considered one of the greatest and most dominant gymnasts of all time.
