Will Simone Biles be featured on tonight’s programming?
Yes. Although this is not a medal round, Simone Biles will be seen on tonight’s primetime programming. Biles seemed to tweak her leg during warmups prior to any events, but that didn’t stop Biles. Cecile Landi, one of Biles’ coaches told reporters that there was no concern regarding Biles’ ability to compete in Paris. Landi added that Biles was dealing with ‘a little pain in her calf. She felt it a little bit on floor.’
Biles competed in the qualifying rounds for the floor routine, vault, and balance beam today. She earned the highest scores of all Americans in each event.
