Her presence in the world games is inspiring to many, as evidenced by all the praise she’s received on social media.

In Conclusion

Gymnast Simone Biles is shattering records and winning Olympic gold medals in both team and individual competitions, further cementing her title as the “Greatest Gymnast of All Time.” But in the process, the 19-year-old has also been compared to other Olympic greats — specifically other male Olympic greats.
