From our special correspondent in Paris – Just three years after having pulled out of the same event in the Tokyo Games due to a debilitating mental block, Simone Biles led the US team to a crushing victory in the women’s team artistic gymnastics on Tuesday at Paris's Bercy Arena.
Is Simone Biles getting sick of us? You couldn’t blame her. Sitting in the media room after having led the US gymnastic team to triumphant gold in the women’s artistic gymnastics final of the Paris Olympics, she sat through question after question from the eager press. How was her calf holding up? What was going through her mind at the start of her floor routine? Finally, it proved too much.
