Simone Manuel dressed for Halloween as a fellow Texan, fellow Olympic gold medalist and fellow Simone. That would be Simone Biles.
Manuel unveiled the costume Thursday night on social media, donning a red and blue leotard that closely matches the one worn by Biles and her countrywomen in the team final at the recent world championships in Stuttgart, Germany.
Manuel wasn’t done. She then posted a video of her doing a pair of cartwheels in the costume.
“I’m better at flips in the pool than I am on land,” was tweeted from her account.
