What Simone Biles JUST DID To Rebeca Andrade Is CRAZY!

It may seem weird to her, but that’s a befitting way to refer to her. Do you agree? Well, whether you do or don’t, people already call her that, so that’s that. And because she IS the GOAT, people are wondering if she will be present in Paris, because some of her strong competitors sure are intent on going.

That’s Rebeca Andrade for you. After all, the 24-year-old Brazilian Olympic gold medallist has overcome years of setbacks to become one of gymnastics’ brightest stars today. So, arriving in Paris with more than a hundred percent is totally possible for her.

Case in point – or, rather, the best example – would be her astounding performance last season. While she was last to go for her team on their final event – vault – at the Artistic Gymnastics World Championships 2023 in Antwerp, Belgium, she still catapulted her squad to a silver medal.

To be fair, they were already on the precipice of a historic team medal and Rebeca simply sealed the deal, so to speak, after she performed with her trademark style and power. It was such an amazing moment that she was barely back to the chairs for the apparatus before her team surrounded her in celebration.

Rebeca Andrade has made quite the name for herself at the Paris Olympics.

Always a threat in the world of gymnastics, the Guarulhos native burst onto the scene for many when she defeated American stars Simone Biles and Jordan Chiles in the floor exercise
The result also attracted interest as the two Americans gave Andrade the royal treatment at the medal ceremony, bowing to her as she claimed her gold medal.

When asked about what winning the gold meant to her, Andrade made it clear it wasn’t just about beating Biles.

“I think it’s not just about beating Simone, it’s about beating myself,” said the Brazilian.

Andrade has come back from several injuries

Along with winning gold, Andrade also took home two silver medals and a bronze at the Olympics.

It was a welcome result for the 25-year-old, who has shown determination in even getting to the games.

She’s overcome three ACL injuries over the course of her career, with the first coming back in 2015 and which forced her to miss the World Championships that year.

Andrade suffered a second ACL injury in 2017, and after returning to action, suffered a third to the same knee in 2019. It’s no surprise then that the Brazilian pointed to her biggest rival coming from within

“My fight is in my head, it’s not with other people,” Andrade said.

“To be able to perform my routines, I need to control my mind, my body, and that’s the fight because Simone and I encourage each other, we want to give our best, so my fight is always with myself.”
