Simone Biles and the meaning of the pendant she wears during the competition

And goat shaped pendant to banish the ghosts of Tokyo and reiterate who is the best ever: Simone Biles, the goat (the goat), in English acronym for greatest of all time (the greatest of all time). The American gymnast wore the jewel after winning her sixth gold medal to the Olympic Gamesthe second to Paris Games after the triumph in the team competition ahead of Italy. “It’s a small celebration, people love it. They always call me goatso I thought it would be really special if I wore one,” she said after taking the win at the Bercy Arena. “The haters hate it, so I love it even more. It’s just a special part of me. I also have a stuffed goat in the Olympic village. It’s kind of a reminder. Like, ‘You can go out there and you can do this. You’ve done it before. So let’s go.’”

Simone Biles’ Revenge

It really works. The pendant, designed by Janet Heller Fine Jewelryhas 546 diamonds set in it. A recurring theme in the history of Biles, who at the 2021 national championships competed wearing a leotard with a goat embroidered on it. In short, the criticism of her detractors is fuel for her success. She had already demonstrated it after the team competition in Paris. After the gold, the 27-year-old posted a photo on Instagram that portrays her with the other protagonists: Sunisa Lee, Jordan Chiles, Jade Carey e Hezly Rivera. The caption reads “talentless, lazy, Olympic champions.” A response to recent comments by MyKayla Skinnera former U.S. gymnast who won silver on vault in Tokyo, who had questioned the talent and dedication of Biles’ teammates.
