Simone Biles Holds Up Sparkly Goat Necklace After Winning Her Second Olympic All-Around Gold

Simone Biles is the G.O.A.T. — and she knows it.

After winning the all-around final at the 2024 Paris Olympics, her second gold of the Games and her sixth Olympic gold, Biles, 27, quickly put on a new necklace, a sparkly goat on a silver chain.

The goat around her neck was a reference to her G.O.A.T. — or Greatest of All Time — status as the most heavily decorated gymnast in history, and the U.S. gymnast with the most Olympic medals.

Biles won the all-around competition for a second time, after previously earning gold at the 2016 Rio Olympics. She finished first with a score of 59.131, beating second-place winner Rebeca Andrane of Brazil by 1.199 points. Biles' U.S. teammate and 2020 Olympic all-around champion Suni Lee earned bronze with a score of 56.465.

Two days earlier, Biles and Lee won gold in the team final competition alongside teammates Jordan Chiles, Jade Carey and Hezly Rivera.

lver and 2 bronze medals to her name, along with her 30 World Championship medals.

On Tuesday though, after their team final win, Biles brushed off her eye-popping numbers.

“I don’t keep count, I don’t keep stats,” she said. “I just go out here and do what I’m supposed to and I’m doing what I love and enjoying it, so that’s really all that matters to me.”

She continued, “Yes, it’s amazing, now that I hear it, but I don’t think I’ll truly understand the depth of it until I walk away from the sport.”
