The Americans were unwilling to provide into great information about her injuries. The initial injury had returned,
as USA gymnastics coach Cecile Landi disclosed that she had experienced “just a little pain in her calf.” Biles was heard on the TV show complaining about her anger.
I could feel it as soon as I took off. There it is, on my calf. The exact spot where I shed that fucking tear. In response to the query about whether it was only a minor injury, Landi said, “I don’t know.” I’m not a medical professional.
Though Biles was cautiously leaving the arena, the expression on her face sent us back a significant distance from the despondent,
heartbroken person who conversed with us in Tokyo, over a thousand days prior. It appears as though the demons have been exorcised,
and Biles is functioning on a separate plane now. It’s impossible to escape the feeling that these Games will have her seal of approval.
