RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — Simone Biles is no longer Rio de Janeiro's juggernaut. A mistake on the balance beam Monday prevented the American gymnastics star from a record-tying fourth gold at the Rio de Janeiro Games.
The blunder allowed Sanne Wevers of the Netherlands to take the gold medal and Laurie Hernandez of the U.S. to slip past her for the silver. It also ended Biles' bid to become the first female gymnast to win five golds in a single Olympics.
Later Monday, world champion Allyson Felix goes for her fifth Olympic gold medal when she runs in the women's 400-meter final as Day 10 of the Rio Olympics features competition in track and field, boxing, cycling, marathon swimming, wrestling and more.
