October 4th, 2023, will be a night to remember in gymnastics history. Simone Biles, Shilese Jones, Skye Blakely, Leanne Wong, Joscelyn Roberson, and Kayla DiCello, the stars of Team USA, displayed sheer camaraderie at the 2023 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships. At the end of the night, these bright faces were smiling from ear to ear, adorned with gold medals. This came after they clinched their seventh consecutive World Championship team title. But behind those radiant smiles was a story of struggle and heartbreak.

Before the competition could begin, fate had other plans for the youngest member of Team USA, Joscelyn Roberson. It was a heartbreaking moment as Roberson came up short on her Cheng vault, resulting in a painful fall. Her leg bore the brunt of this, rendering her unable to walk, let alone face the challenges of the night. In that agonizing moment, coach Laurent Landi, who had mentors both Roberson and the legendary Simone Biles at the World Champions Centre (WCC), carried her away. Her dreams were momentarily shattered.

According to a post on X by ‘Inside Gymnastics’, ?Joscelyn said she is great. She was feeling all of the emotions after Simone’s floor routine. Finding out Melanie won a bronze with her team was an incredible moment for WCC. “I was crying so many happy tears for all of us!”?

These words reflect that, despite not being able to contribute, Roberson was still happy for her teammates and also for M?lanie de Jesus dos Santos of France, who trains with Biles and Roberson. Leanne Wong, stepping up to fill her teammate’s shoes, embraced the challenge, competing in the vault and floor?two apparatuses she hadn’t initially anticipated.

Wong, alongside the leadership of the iconic Biles, led Team USA to an extraordinary victory. When she was tapped in to fill for Roberson, she felt “full of so many emotions.”
