Simone Biles Suddenly Exits Women's Team Event but Says She's "Okay" | PEOPLE
In a surprise reversal of her Tokyo Olympic hopes, Simone Biles exited the women's gymnastics team final early on Tuesday night in Japan — after briefly leaving the competition floor following a botched showing on the vault, her first event. Speaking after the final ended, Biles said she was "okay, just dealing with some things internally which will get fixed out in the next couple of days." Her choice was not connected to an injury, she said. Instead she described an almost overbearing amount of stress in the lead-up to Tuesday night. If she had continued to compete while under such pressure and as mentally off-kilter as she felt, she said, she worried she would have risked the squad's medal chances.
