Simone Biles continued her reign as the undisputed queen of gymnastics, securing her second consecutive Olympic all-around gold medal at the Paris Olympics 2024. The American superstar delivered flawless performances across all four events, earning top scores in each rotation of the all-around competition. 

Biles is now the most decorated gymnast, having won 30 world championship medals in addition to her Olympic glory. After adding another gold medal at the Paris Games, the 27-year-old earned a new nickname from Team USA basketball veteran Kevin Durant.

On Thursday, Durant took to social media and gave Biles a new nickname: “Goat Biles.”

“I really believe Goat Biles can catch a lob and finish. #bounce”, Durant posted on X.

The fans shared the same sentiments as KD and called Biles the GOAT.

While Biles has etched her name in history, Durant is on track to secure his fourth Olympic gold

medal in basketball with Team USA. The men’s basketball team has advanced to the last 8 after registering wins against Serbia and South Sudan. They will face Puerto Rico in their final group-stage match on Saturday.
