Simone Biles

Simone Biles, American gymnast (born 14 March 1997 Columbus Ohio U.S.), was considered as the best athlete in sport. At the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro she became the first female U.S. gymnast to win four gold medals in the same Games and she was the first gymnast to earn three consecutive all-around world championships (2013-15). Biles was born in Spring Texas, in the Houston metro region. Her sister Adria had been adopted by Ronald and Nellie Biles. Simone was first introduced to the sport by her teacher at daycare Aimee Borman when she was just six years old. Biles stayed with Bannon's Gymnastix for 11 years. Biles received a silver medal for vault as well as a gold medal on the floor during the 2010 Women's Junior Olympic National Championships. She began competing in elite levels of the sport. In less than two years, she became the most successful athlete in her discipline. What stood Biles apart was her consistency her flamboyant attitude and the high degree of challenge she integrated into her routines throughout all four events--vault uneven bars, balance beam, and floor exercise.
