Simone Biles made history again with another a gold medal at the Olympic games. Now she has SIX gold medals in gymnastics!

Sadly, she fell short (literally)of tying Larisa Latynina’s all-time Olympic gold medal record by a female American gymnast after falling off the beam during the individual event.

A rare misstep, but she still has a lot to be excited about!

Simone had her eyes set on winning her third Olympics all-around title and she did not come to play. Ahead of the event, Simone, after taking first in qualifying, will enter the all-around final with a near-two-point lead over Brazil’s Rebeca Andrade. If Simone can win, she’d be the first woman in history to win the event in three different Olympics.

This is after she and her squad – Hezly Rivera, Jordan Chiles, Jade Carey and Suni Lee – won the women’s team final early in the week.

Now, means Simone has 6 gold medals, and 9 Olympic medals in all!

Simone competed in all four events — vault, uneven bars, balance beam and floor exercise — solo. While she had an iffy go of it on the bars, she dominated everywhere else!
