Current best female gymnastics probably is Simone Biles. She led American team to gold medal today with record point spread between them and second place Russia of more than 8 points. Point spread between second place and last place is 4.6 points.

Simone Bilesis expected to win another 4 gold medals with individual all-round and all 3 others(floor exercise, balance beam and vault). If she does she will become the first female gymnastics to win 5 gold medals in 1 Olympic.

If I understand your vernacular properly, that's intended to be complimentary...wasn't that long ago that calling a girl a "beast" was among the most terrible of insults...

Family stepped up to the plate when the parents fell down.

Odd wikipedia mentions the problems of her mother but no mention of the absent father.

Very impressive woman.

She is very impressive, under these circumstances(without blood father) most kids would surrender to the easy temptations such as drugs and crimes, but her grand father who adopted her guided her to better life and success beyond imagination.

I would like to say this: she made me and many American proud !
 
Saw her in a Tide advertisement. She shuts the door on the washer and the whole house shakes!!!
 
She is amazing, as are the rest of the USA Women's Gymnastics Team. There are many athletes from the USA, and other Countries who are incredible in their respective disciplines.

She'd certainly be an Olympic legend if she achieves that. Amazing!

I hope you were just being snarky... Of course it was complimentary.
 
It seems like she's going to become an icon, like Phelps, who might also clean up the Gold this Olympics adding to his prolific career at the "old" age of 31...

Simone Biles won gold and Aly Raisman finish second in all-around. Biles has 3 more golds to capture: vault, beam and floor (she is not competing in uneven bars).
