Re: Simone Biles Makes More History at U.S. Gymnastics Championships
The 22-year-old was actually disappointed despite her historic performance on Saturday after she fell attempting the triple-double.
"As soon as I fell on floor, I was like, 'That’s it, I’m scratching the meet. I’m walking off the floor,' " Biles said, via USA TODAY.
She continued: "I still get really frustrated because I know how good I am and how well I can do, so I just want to do the best routine for the audience and for myself out here."
It’s that level of expectation and drive that has made Biles the best gymnast in the world and one of the greatest of all time.
What a talent.
