It’s not as over as we thought for Simone Biles at the Olympics. She’ll be on the balance beam in tomorrow’s competition. The team confirmed it on a Tweet earlier today that says both Simone and Suni Lee will be competing on the balance beam.
What about the “twisties”? According to former Olympian Laurie Hernandez, it’s safer on the balance beam because you don’t do as many……. Well, twists. There’s less chance of getting hurt from a complicated move.
In 2016, Biles got bronze on the beam.
