Simone Biles on emotions

Simone Biles concluded her participation in the 2024 Paris Olympics with an emotional moment, breaking down in tears after her final event, where she won a silver medal in the floor exercise. During an interview on the 'Today' show, she expressed her feelings of pride and bittersweet joy over her journey as she recalled the emotional release she experienced with teammate Jordan Chiles. Biles secured a total of four medals in Paris—three gold and one silver—bringing her Olympic medal count to an impressive eleven, further solidifying her status as the most decorated gymnast in American history. Reflecting on her experience, Biles acknowledged that she might not fully grasp the significance of her achievements until retirement.
