Simone Biles, an American artistic gymnast, said she would not continue in the ongoing Tokyo Olympics 2020. However, this case is different from the rest since the athlete is not suffering from any physical injury.

"Emotionally, it varies on the time and moment. Coming to the Olympics and being head star isn't an easy feat," said Biles.

She reiterated that she is currently going through things, which affect her mind. On the other hand, she said that she is really proud of her U.S. teammates even if they are bringing a silver medal.

The athlete said that she would be forever inspired by the determination they showed during the Tokyo Olympics 2020. Simone added that her teammates fought for their country's pride when she couldn't.

Biles Still Helped Her Team

Sports Yahoo reported that her teammates had a rough time without their team carrier. Sunisa Lee, one of Biles's teammates, said that they were really stressed out with the athlete's withdrawal from the competition.

She added that Simone basically carries the U.S. team. Although this is the case, Lee and other American gymnast representatives said that her cheering them on allowed them to close the gap against the Russians. Although they only won a silver medal, the American team still made Russians sweat it out until the last rotation.
