This award means a lot to Simone Biles. All the glorious conversation around her got polluted with the conversation of her twisties. Moreover, many even said that the elite gymnast was turning her back on her country and wasn’t a true patriot. But, her loyal fans didn’t let her reputation get tarnished and have been cheering harder right from Biles’ US Classic return.
