With her triumph, Simone Biles became the only female gymnast to win six world all-around golds, equaling Uchimura Kohei’s record. She now holds a remarkable total of 34 world and Olympic medals, which is more than any other gymnast, male or female, making her the most decorated gymnast in the history of the sport.
