Breaking:Simone Biles, Suni Lee go for gold at Paris Olympics amid drama with ex-teammate

Simone Biles on Wednesday created a stir when an Instagram post seemingly reacted to critical comments made by a former Team USA gymnastics teammate.

Biles, Suni Lee, Jordan Chiles, Jade Carey and Hezly Rivera took home the gold in the team final on Tuesday. Biles posted a collage of photos showing their jubilant celebration wit the caption, “lack of talent, lazy, Olympic champions.”

Biles then revealed she was blocked on Instagram afterward and Jordan Chiles came with the proof. Lee, in the comments section, wrote, “Put a finger down if Simone Biles just ended you,”

MyKayla Skinner’s comments from earlier in the month ruffled feathers.

“Besides Simone, I feel like the talent and the depth just isn’t like what it used to be. Just notice like, I mean, obviously a lot of girls don’t work as hard. The girls just don’t have the work ethic,” Skinner said in a since-deleted YouTube video, according to the New York Post.

She issued an apology but the words still stung.Biles and Lee compete in the all-around final later today.

Simone Biles is looking to make even more history when she competes in the women’s gymnastics all-around final at Bercy Arena on Thursday.

Biles, 27, will compete against fellow Team USA Olympian and defending Olympic champion Suni Lee for the chance to win her second gold medal at these Summer Games. A place at the top of the podium would make Biles the oldest women’s all-around champion since 1952 when Maria Gorokhovskaya did so at age 30.

Competition begins at 12:15 p.m. ET. She will begin with the vault in her first rotation, followed by the uneven bars, the balance beam, and finally the floor exercise.
