U.S. Women's Gymnastics Team Takes Home Six Olympic Medals

Age: 24

Hometown: Spring, Texas

The most famous gymnast on the U.S. team, Simone Biles was widely expected to bring home gold. However, Biles, who is recognized as the best gymnast in the world, withdrew from the competition for mental health reasons. Biles made headlines earlier this summer as the first woman to perform the Yurchenko double pike vault in competition, and, thus far, only men have completed it at the Olympics. Though Biles skipped the all-around and three individual events, she returned to competition for the balance beam, where she won a bronze medal.
