Simone Biles’ redemption song continues to silence Tokyo demons

The Hindu  

For a generation, Simone Biles has defined gymnastics. At the Tokyo Games in 2021, Biles — regarded by then as one of the best of all time — had a bout of the disorienting ‘twisties’. At the World Championships last year, she increased her World and Olympics medal tally to 37, making her the most decorated gymnast ever — male or female — at the sport’s two signature events ahead of the retired Vitaly Scherbo. Biles booked her ticket to the Paris Games after a resounding all-around victory at the US gymnastics trials last weekend and will headline an American team eyeing a shot at redemption. And while there are still moments of anxiety — including at last year’s World Championships — she has put safeguards in place — therapy, breathing and visualisation exercises — to protect herself.
