This wasn’t shocking. She was gonna come back sooner than later. She just needed a reprieve

[rosemary]

There is no doubt Simone is an amazing athlete but the media needs to also give credit to other gymnast like they deserve.

[jonanna]

I hope Simone enjoys herself. Simone is truly a global superstar in gymnastics and I’m excited to get the privilege of seeing her compete.

[Rickenbacker]

I want to believe Biles dropped to give others an opportunity.

[kathysimmons]

I think you need to rethink your words. MyKayle step up won silver. Not say its a surprise MyKayle won . She did she got a second chance and nailed it. No surprise just a fact. Give credit where credits do.

I could have sworn this was a team competition not the Simone biles show don't need to quit putting all the pressure on her everybody is supposed to be just as good as her so when she step down they should Step Up. And to all you haters you will never be as good as her not even one-third of her level of athleticism

[TheTbabylati]

She’s not over the twisties. She’s doing a bean routine that doesn’t include twist unlike every other routine.

[Neo-Reloaded]

Thank you to the medical team that helped her to recover in just 8 days. That's a real world record.

[luzmcopeland]

Simone please don’t give up. You can make it. Praying for you. God Bless you always. Good luck!

[colby]

Seems like the athletes that withdrew from competing are planning to start a movement against the Olympic Committee.

[patriciaegan]

Simone, be safe and will be hoping for the best for you!

[jennifercoleman]

Good for her. Love how the guys decided to share the gold. Glad the girl didn't have to go back to her county.

[richardfox]

If Biles is having the yipes, I would certainly be concerned doing the beam - most dangerous of the events. Puzzled.

[sonydauphin]

Something doesn't seem to be right in the Simone's saga in Tokyo ...could it be voluntarily or otherwise...

[heathernile]
