Simone Biles warms up for Tokyo Olympics by claiming seventh U.S. title
The HinduSimone Biles again showed her quality, outclassing the field at the U.S. Gymnastics Championships on Sunday to claim a record seventh all-around national title and make her selection to the Tokyo Olympic team a mere formality. "It's really emotional, especially going into my second time doing a Olympic run, it's really crazy," said Biles, who has won every all-around competition she’s contested since the 2013 U.S. Championships. In what was just her second competition in 18 months, Biles shook off any remaining rust delivering a dazzling display that left the crowd in awe, even without pulling out her show stoppers like the Yurchenko double-pike vault which she is the only woman to land in competition. The reigning world and Olympic all-around champion showed little emotion as she ran through her routines, posting top marks on three of four apparatus - the vault, floor exercise and balance beam.
