Simone Biles says she should have quit ''way before'' 2020 Tokyo Olympics

India TV News  

Four-time Olympic gymnastics champion Simone Biles believes she should have "quit way before" this year's Tokyo Games. "I should have quit way before Tokyo, when Larry Nassar was in the media for two years. "But I was not going to let him take something I've worked for since I was six years old," she added in the interview, which was released on Monday. In addition to mental health issues, she also experienced "the twisties" - a phenomenon which temporarily affects an athlete's spatial awareness.
