On Day 10 of the Paris Olympics, Simone Biles was surprisingly upstaged in the floor exercise final by Brazilian gymnast Rebeca Andrade. While it was not the ending the American gymnast was expecting, a silver medal on Monday capped her remarkable Olympic comeback.
Biles, the most decorated gymnast in history, admitted that exhaustion had started to set in on the final day of a gruelling competition.
"Obviously wasn't my best performances but at the end of the day, whoever medalled, medalled," she said.
