Simone Biles won her second career Olympic all-around title on Thursday by more than a full point after recovering from a mistake on the uneven bars to fend off a strong challenge from Rebeca Andrade of Brazil, who won the silver medal.
Vault
Biles performed the world’s most difficult vault, the Yurchenko double pike, which no other woman has done. The difficulty value gave her a cushion of eight-tenths of a point over Andrade, who performed a vault called a Cheng.
