Simone Biles' Gold Streak Ends in Rio

It was a rare show of weakness. On a forward somersault on the balance beam, the 2016 Olympic all-around champion Simone Biles put her hands down on the beam to steady herself. A few more balance checks followed, and she earned a 14.733–a strong score, but not enough to overtake Sanne Wevers of the Netherlands, who won gold. It was Biles’ lowest score on the event throughout the week’s competition in Rio, but still enough for bronze.
