Simone Biles earned much more than the titles
Biles came forward as the epitome of hard work and perseverance for gymnasts. Biles started showing interest in the sport at the age of six and began her training when she was eight. The 25-year-old star gymnast earned her first medal at the age of 16.

Other than winning gold for her nation, Biles has used her position to voice the opinions of females and has also acted as a mental health advocate. At times, Biles also stood up for discrimination and challenges faced by women in sports.
