final. The 24-year-old said the emotional toll of the Tokyo Games, not a physical injury, prompted her to withdraw.
The Tokyo Olympics were meant to be a showcase for Biles, a four-time gold medalist who has wowed the gymnastics world with her talent. Instead, it has thrust her into the conversation around mental health and sport.
I hope she is truly OK and not feeling pressure to compete give this kid a break she is this countries greatest gymnast I Believe every American is pulling for her good luck
Pssst. You know what’s cool? Stepping aside to take care of yourself and letting your teammates have the opportunity to shine
It's okay. You can withdraw. Adversity overcame you not the other way around. nolongerdependable
Send her home she is ill per her own admission. It is abuse to have an ill person compete.
It must have been one of those 24 hour mental health illnesses.
She should head home and rest. Not sure why shes still there.
Way sick of hearing about her.
So the twisties are all gone. Cool
Do ya think that's wise? All week been suffering with mental health issues but a 4 inch wide beam 4 feet off the floor seems like a good idea?
If she is ready to try, then OK, if she's not, then OK too. It's up to her and I'd just prefer her safe, but only she knows if she's OK to try.
That's nice.
Yawn.
Good for her
Morning_Joe Getting way too much attention for having NOT competed. Focus on our 'participants'. and medal winners. Drama queen
Morning_Joe Wrong. She saw how STUNNING Sunni Lee was on parallel bars and had no desire to lose to her.
Morning_Joe She must have got her head checked out and screwed on straight
GOAT 🥇
Prayers to you, Simone! Be safe!!👍👍👏👏🙏🙏🙏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🌠🎆
What about the weight of the World?
No thanks
WOW she sure got 'well' quick
Good luck Ms. Biles! 🍀🍀
Sunisa Lee making people forget about you?
This child is using the TeamUSA as her personal platform for her inability to cope. Other athletes have the same pressure to preform but you have not seen any other ones bitch and complain about it. Simone should seek mental health help as soon as possible pack up and leave
Oh scared for her
LMAO
Fingers crossed that she will do well.
That’s good. Many Americans will be going to work and doing what they were trained to do, also.
