Simone Biles has done it again.
Biles’ win broke a tie with Alfred Jochim for the most U.S. all-around national titles. Jochim won his last title in 1933. Biles won four straight titles from 2013-16, and then won again in 2018, 2019 and 2021.earlier this month at the U.S. Classic, which marked her first time back at the elite level since the Tokyo Olympics — where she withdrew from several events after dealing with the"twisties.
Next for Biles, presumably, will be the World Championships in Antwerp, Belgium, next month. Biles won her first ever world championship title in Antwerp in 2013. It’s unclear whether Biles will compete in the 2024 Olympics in Paris next summer, though it appears she’s trending in that direction. She told NBC on Sunday that she wanted to keep her goals private, and did not publicly commit.
"I like to keep [my goals] personal, just so that I know what I'm aiming for," Biles said on NBC."I think it's better that way. I'm trying to move a little bit differently this year than I have in the past. So I think it's working so far, so I'm going to keep it secretive."
