Simone Biles experienced a rare stumble at the Paris Summer Olympics, missing out on a gold medal for the first time in this competition, marking a significant comeback from her challenges in Tokyo three years ago.
In the individual beam final, Biles faltered and fell off the apparatus, a mistake that dashed her hopes of further cementing her legacy in France.
The gold medal in the event was claimed by Italy’s Alice D’Amato, with China’s Zhou Yaqin taking silver and another Italian, Manila Esposito, securing the bronze.
