Biles Shines Despite Challenging Beam Final

Simone Biles concluded the 2024 Paris Olympics with an impressive performance, securing four medals—three gold and one silver—solidifying her status as one of the greatest gymnasts ever. Despite her success, she found the balance beam final particularly challenging due to the unusually quiet atmosphere in the arena, which she described as 'weird and awkward.' Background noise, typically present in such events, was absent, causing additional stress and contributing to uncharacteristic mistakes. Biles mentioned that the crowd's shushing during the event made it even harder to stay focused. This year's 'Redemption Tour' for Biles follows her withdrawal from the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, and she hinted at the possibility of competing in the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics. After celebrating her achievements, she looks forward to supporting her husband, NFL player Jonathan Owens, in his upcoming season.
