Simone Biles handed Major Legendary award after winning fifth Gold at the…

Simone Biles’ breathtaking routines enthralled spectators at the Bercy Arena in Paris and viewers all over the world as she won her fifth Olympic gold medal in a successful comeback to the women’s gymnastics team final at the Paris Games on Tuesday.

Biles, the most decorated gymnast of all time, helped the United States win its fourth Olympic gold medal in the women’s team event, with stunning performances on all four apparatus.

The American has been on what she described as a’redemption tour’ at the Paris Games after shocking a global audience by suddenly withdrawing from the team final in Tokyo suffering from the ‘twisties’, a condition involving temporary loss of spatial awareness experienced by gymnasts while performing high-difficulty elements.

“I started off with therapy this morning and… I was feeling calm and ready,” the 27-year-old told a packed press conference at the Bercy Arena. “As soon as I landed vault, I said, ‘Oh yeah, we’re definitely going to do this.'”

With the fans rallying behind Biles and her teammates in the absence of the French team, which did not qualify for the final, the United States ended with a total of 171.296, an amazing 5.802 points ahead of second-placed Italy. Rebeca Andrade’s stunning, high-flying vault helped Brazil win bronze, its first medal in the event. Britain finished fourth.

Biles claimed it was too early to ponder on her legacy and was astonished to learn from a reporter that she has already won a staggering 38 world and Olympic medals combined. “I’m doing what I love and enjoying it, that’s all that matters to me,” replied the woman. “Yes, it’s amazing but I don’t think I’ll truly understand the depth of it until I walk away from the sport.”

Biles, who competed with her left calf taped after suffering a muscle strain in Sunday’s qualifying round, began her pursuit for the first of five gold medals in Paris on the vault. She sped down the runway before leaping high into the air while performing the Cheng vault, earning 14.900 points.

She then glided through her uneven bars routine with ease to the delight of the 15,000 fans packed into Bercy Arena, who serenaded her with chants of “USA! USA! USA!”. She was awarded 14.400.
