    Gymnastics Legend Nastia Liukin Makes It Crystal Clear How She Feels About Simone Biles

    By Michael Gallagher,

    Simone Biles is leaving the 2024 Paris Olympics with four medals — three gold and one silver — and the title of the most-decorated American gymnast in Olympics history.

    Few, if any, would argue that Biles is the greatest gymnast of all time — a sentiment that gymnastics legend Nastia Liukin seemingly agrees with. The five-time Olympic medalist took to Instagram to make it known how highly she thinks of Biles, leaving a comment the 27-year-old gymnast will likely never forget.

    “QUEEN. THAT’s ALL,” Liukin commented on Biles post of her showing off her four medals.

    Biles’ 11 Olympic medals coupled with her 30 World Championship medals make her the most successful gymnast in the history of the sport.

    She’s just two gold medals away from tying Russian Larisa Latynina’s Olympic record, and she’s seven medals away from tying Latynina’s Olympic record of 18 total medals.

    Though Biles hasn’t officially announced if she will or won’t compete in the 2028 Olympic Games, and subsequently chase Latynina’s gold-medal record, the event will be held in Los Angeles, which could entice Biles to make one more run at history.
