There is no other gymnast who has seen such a long spell of dominance as Simone Biles. The 27-year-old came into prominence at the 2016 Rio Olympics and has stayed at the top since then, winning numerous medals. This includes her 11 Olympic medals and 30 World Championship medals. No one else comes close to her. Her legacy in gymnastics has often been compared to another one in a different sport. It is Serena Williams.
Serena is often considered the greatest tennis player to ever step foot on the court, winning 73 titles in her illustrious career. The athlete held the World No. 1 rank for 319 weeks, showing the level of dominance she had over her counterparts. Her 23 Grand Slams, the most one has achieved in the Open Era, also helped cement her legacy.
Simone and she are both amazing female athletes. Hence, when they recently came together for an event, the fans couldn’t control their excitement. On December 5th, tennis legend Serena Williams uploaded an Instagram post where she sat alongside Simone Biles in an event. The whole thing was for Vanity Fair and Female Quotient, and both athletes had been invited to give a lecture to the audience.
