#SimoneBiles is a champion once again!
The four-time Olympic gold medalist returned to gymnastics competition at the Core Hydration Classic outside of Chicago on Saturday night, where she won the all-around, balance beam, and floor titles and had the highest score on vault.
Biles finished five points ahead of silver medalist Leanne Wong with an all-around score of 59.1, which is an unbelievable margin in a sport of tenths.
Biles did not announce her return with much fanfare – no television announcement – she simply added her name to the list of gymnasts competing .
Biles, after the competition, said , “I think the night went really well. Everything has fallen into place. I feel really good about where I am right now, mentally and physically. There are some things to work on in my routines, but for the first meet back, I would say it went pretty well. I’m very shocked and surprised.”
The U.S. Classic is considered to be the warm-up before the U.S. Championships late this month. The world championships are in October, and the Olympics are next year in Paris. Maybe Simone is on her way to winning more gold.
