Simone Biles held off Brazil’s Rebeca Andrade for all-around Olympics gymnastics gold. At 27, she’s the oldest Olympic women’s gymnastics champ since 1952.
Biles is now the third woman to win two Olympic all-around titles. Teammate Sunisa Lee won in Tokyo, Biles at Rio de Janeiro in 2016, Gabby Douglas at London in 2012, Nastia Liukin at Beijing in 2008 and Carly Patterson at Athens in 2004.
The earliest another nation could pass the U.S. for this run of consecutive all-around dominance: 2052, and that’s if one country wins the next seven Olympic titles in that event.
Here are some numbers on Biles’ Olympic dominance:
6
Her new total of Olympic golds, third-most in women’s gymnastics history. Larisa Latynina of the Soviet Union won nine and Czechoslovakia’s Vera Caslavska won seven.
9
Her new total of Olympic medals, the seventh woman with at least that many.
34
The number of consecutive all-around competitions at the national and international level she has won, a streak that goes back to 2013.
$75,000
The number of dollars in bonus money she’s won from the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Committee so far in these Paris Games. The Americans pay $37,500 for gold medals.
