While there were a lot of Olympic events taking place in Rio on Tuesday, within question, especially here in the United States, all eyes were on watching the “Final Five,” the US Women’s Gymnastics team, bring home the gold. Really, there was no doubting that these talented young ladies were going to bring home the bring prize, and they did just that.
One person that was not on the 2012 team that brought home the gold the last time was Simone Biles, who is perhaps on her way to becoming the greatest gymnast in history, if she’s not there already.
After the gold medal win, the world champion was quick to take to Twitter to let her feelings on the amazing accomplishment be known.

A lot of gymnasts who win the gold medal say pretty much the same thing, but the fact of the matter is that it will never get old. It especially never gets old hearing from someone as young as Biles, who is only 19 years of age.
From the very beginning of the competition, Biles did nothing but prove once again to everyone that she is indeed the best gymnast that the world has to offer, and there’s no doubt that she will continue doing that in her future endeavors beyond these Olympics.
But for now, she’s earned the right to soak this all in with the four of her teammates.
