She did great overall and represented the Unites States and her team magnificently.

That little lady is absolutely a legend!!! My God, Simone owns this gymnastics era!! I hope her family and life are smooth and amazing. Simone rules. 🇺🇸😍

Rebecca was better and deserved the gold medal today.
American girls with silver and bronze were great.

Tremendous athletes that compete in gymnastics .. Biles is only human but her accomplishments are stellar indeed … 3 Gold medals and a Silver says it all ….

Still did an amazing job. Has been so awesome watching these women!

Fortunately, there are other wonderful beam workers. Very glad to see other gymnasts from different countries are being rewarded for their hard work and capabilities. Not all is about just one person 🙂

Getting silver and bronze is "failure"? What does that say about the rest of us? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😅😅😅😅

[Netcentric-fkek]

I heard there are other athletes at the games this year.

[tzellyful]

what do you mean by fail??? there is no failing in sport and doing the best at all time!

[bulgariantranslator]

I did not like what the anchors said: They both

[saraszs]

I fking hate how this title is worded.

[anovemberstar]

She didn't "fail" at anything - you're ASSUMING it was her personal goal to medal when she made it clear hwr goal for this Olympics was to compete and enjoy it. Try "missed out" .. so incredibly negative regardless of whichever athlete a new article is about! Shame on you

[lynnetucholke-shorter]

These young women are great! Can't imagine the stress they've been under. Proud of Team USA!!!

[Jimmy-wfhz]

Simone is the GOAT and she doesn't need to be recognized by gold.She is the best.

[Wakeupgrandowl]

The title and phrasing are really negative

[phil_]

Well. Damn fine showing altogether. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[tonyward]

Suni only won in Tokyo because Simone had “Twisties”

[pablogrijalva]

The GOAT, PRFF Americans are such comedians

[Hello_Haven]

Just shame on you CBS. How about put Suni's name in the title as well. How about "earned silver" instead of "gets silver." Are you using ChatGPT for your titles? Just such a shameful network.

There’s just something awkward about the balance beam. Narrow. High. Hard. Not all that long.
