Simone Biles

Simone Biles, American gymnast (born 14 March 1997 in Columbus Ohio U.S.), was considered as the best athlete in sport. Biles was the first American female gymnast ever to win four gold medals in one Games. In Rio de Janeiro, she also became the first woman to ever win consecutive World All-Around titles. Biles was raised within Spring Texas, in the Houston metropolitan area. She and her sister Adria were adopted by Ronald and Nellie Biles. Simone's interest in gymnastics began when she was just six years old when she took a trip with her day-care group to Bannon Gymnastix. Simone remained under Aimee Borman as coach from 2011. Biles won a gold in floor exercises and also a bronze in vault during the women's Junior Olympic National Championships in 2010, before advancing to the elite level of gymnastics in the year 2011. Within less than two years, she was the top athlete in her field. Biles's consistency, her exuberant nature and high degree of challenge in her four events -- vault uneven bars balance beam floor exercise as well as floor exercises -- helped to set her above the others.
