Simone Biles

Simone Biles redefines excellence with 7 Olympic medals, including 4 golds in 2016 and 3 golds plus 1 silver at the 2024 Paris Games, a haul that eclipses #7 Simone Biles's own earlier record. She holds 30 World Championship medals, 10 more than the typical rival gymnast, and has four skills named after her—more than any other gymnast—due to her unmatched difficulty level. Her Yurchenko double pike vault, with a 6.6 difficulty score, is 0.5 points higher than the average elite gymnast. Biles sets the benchmark for complexity and longevity in gymnastics.
