After her grand entry and hype for her participation at the Core Hydration Classic, Simone Biles proved her skills once again by winning the all-around event. This marks a successful step further into her Paris Olympics journey.
This year, the road to the Olympics has been historic, with Biles returning along with fellow Olympians, Gabby Douglas and Sunisa Lee. The Core Classics witnessed some of the most spectacular performances by them, along with other top-ranking participants.
Biles dominated the all-around category, followed in quick succession by World Championships icon Shilese Jones and fellow Olympian Jordan Chiles. Meanwhile, Lee dominated the beams and bagged the gold in that category, while Douglas faced some disappointments.
After an extended break since the 2016 Olympics, fans hoped to see her shine. However, she faced some challenges on the uneven bars and pulled out of the four remaining events. Regardless, the official page for Team USA has already hyped fans up for what’s about to come.
