ANTWERP, Belgium — Simone Biles and her teammates were far from perfect, and yet nothing could stand in the way of a victory that set a record for both the U.S. women's team and the greatest gymnast in history.
“It wasn’t Team USA’s best day,” Biles said."It’s crazy, we still pulled it out. So I’m really, really proud of the team.” “We had some mistakes here and there, but just keep going, keep relying on our training,” Biles said. “But I think this team that we have brought this year has the most great courage and fight. ... We had so many emotions going throughout the day.”
Russia was banned from the event because of sanctions imposed by the International Gymnastics Federation as a result of the war against Ukraine. In the absence of their Russian rivals — the defending Olympic champions — the Americans were the overwhelming favorites. Biles capped off a successful night for the U.S team with a spectacular floor routine rewarded by a 15.166.
