Simone Biles wins balance beam bronze in gymnastics return
Telegraph, 03 Aug 2021
Simone Biles won bronze in the balance beam on her high-pressure return to Tokyo 2020.
The 24-year-old four-time 2016 champion held her nerve with an impressive double pike dismount off the beam, but, with a moderately lower difficulty rating than normal, she was beaten by a one-two for China.
