Sometimes, when you are the best at what you do, your minor accomplishments often go unnoticed. But does that mean they are not important? Surely not. At least not for the gymnastics GOAT Simone Biles. She considers every minute accolade she has ever accomplished as part of her overall journey and thus they all are equally important to her.

Simone Biles is a once-in-a-century kind of athlete. Her stardom is not just confined to the sport of gymnastics. Today, she is a mental health role model for the entire world. She is an inspiration to be followed for generations to come.

Simone Biles feels like her bronze medal doesn’t count

When Simone went to the Rio Olympics in 2016, she was the star of the Games. It was her debut Olympics, but with her remarkable talent and skill, she outperformed some of the seasoned gymnasts as well. She won a total of five medals in the Rio Olympics, including four gold and one bronze medal. However, sometimes she feels that her bronze medals don’t get the same recognition as her other medals in the Olympics.

Simone said, “I came out of the 2016 Olympics with 5 medals, but nobody recognizes that medal. So every time I go somewhere “four times gold medalist” (imitating) but I have five medals. Like my bronze feels so neglected.”

Perhaps since Simone has raised her standard to a champion, anything below that will probably go unnoticed.

Some of Simone’s Olympic medals were defective

According to Simone’s mother, Nellie Biles, some of her medals from the Rio Games were defective, so she sent them back. She said, “It’s tarnished, the bronze medal so I need to send it back and they are going to replace it. All her medals were fine except for the bronze one.” Maybe this is the reason her bronze medal is getting neglected because it was not up to the mark.

However, even winning a bronze at the Olympics is not that simple. You are actually competing against the very best athletes in the sport, so if you are on the podium, you are already the best amongst the best.
