Simone Biles is a gold medalist in\u00a0the women’s artistic gymnastics all-around event<\/a>\u00a0once again after capturing the gold in Paris on Thursday despite a tough competition and further cementing her title as the Greatest Of All Time.<\/p>\n

Behind a historic vault rotation, Biles won back gold medal she last earned in the 2016 Rio Olympics.<\/p>\n

She started off strong in the first rotation\u00a0drilling a Yurchenko double pike on the vault for a score of 15.766<\/a>. It was the best vault score of any competitor and deservedly so for its difficulty.<\/p>\n

But it was a close competition throughout between Biles and\u00a0Brazil\u2019s Rebeca Andrade<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Biles made her first big mistake of the Olympics in the second rotation on the uneven bars. She botched a transition from the upper bar to the lower bar, a miscue that messed with her momentum and forced her to muscle her way back into her routine.<\/p>\n

Biles was visibly annoyed as she made her way off the podium. Her score of 13.733 dropped her behind Andrade through two rotations.<\/p>\n

The uneven bars was wear Lee, the 2020 all-around gold medalist, dominated with a 14.866, the highest score of all the competitors<\/p>\n

A couple of tiny slip-ups on the third rotation in the balance beam didn\u2019t seem to hurt Biles as she close in on Andrade. Biles scored a 14.566 and Andrade a 14.133, giving Biles the lead back, but ever so narrowly. Only 0.166 points separated the two competitors chasing gold as they went into the floor exercise, the fourth and final routine.<\/p>\n

She finished up the final rotation on the floor with a score of 15.066. She was the last gymnast of the night to compete, a fitting end to a gold-medal performance.<\/p>\n

This was\u00a0the first time two all-around women champions competed against each other in an all-around competition<\/a>, but Biles and Lee did just that, and both Golden Girls shined bright.<\/p>\n
