Simone Biles was spotted in a walking boot during the closing ceremony of the 2024 Paris Olympics on Sunday (August 11).
Biles, 27, the most decorated American gymnast in history, represented the United States on stage as the Olympic flag was lowered in Paris and handed off in honor of the 2028 Olympics being held in Los Angeles. The gymnast was reported to have dealt with a linger calf issue prior to winning three gold medals and one silver in five total events, bringing her career total to 11 medals won across three Olympics games.
Biles led Team USA to a gold medal in the women's team all-around final, women's vault final and individual gold in the women's all-around final, becoming the first American to ever the event win twice, having previously won the all-around during her Olympic debut at the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Games.
