What You Missed if You Didn’t Watch Olympic Gymnastics

Slate  

Even though it has been a remarkably slow couple of weeks for national and international news, I suppose that some of you still, somehow, had better things to do than wake up at zero dark thirty to watch jacked young people flip upside down on the other side of the world. I still can’t believe that it’s over—but as I nurse my gymnastics hangover and Simone Biles babysits her four new medals, let us review the most defining moments of these Games’ only sport. “Maybe if my ankle was fractured,” Biles told the Netflix camera crew in her recent documentary, “I would have still, but that wasn’t the case.” Because Biles suffered from an injury nobody could see, a small but loud-and-wrong minority crowed about her “quitting on her team” until the moment she took the floor in qualifications in Paris—whereupon she promptly injured her calf warming up for floor exercise. The balance beam and men’s high bar were both obviously jinxed, and in the Games’ last gymnastics meet, the floor exercise final, it came down to one question: Can Simone Biles stay in bounds? The News Cycle Missed Some Stellar Moments, but I Didn’t With all the excitement of the Biles-led redemption tour and Pommel Horse Guy and a podium moment worthy of the Louvre itself—not to mention, you know, attention drawn to the bonkers U.S. presidential race and a continuing deluge of harrowing news from around the world—there were more than a few gymnastics moments that just didn’t fit into the timeline.
