Answer 1

My favorite sports celebrity is Simone Biles. She is an American artistic gymnast who is widely regarded as the greatest gymnast of all time. She has won 32 Olympic and World Championship medals, including a record seven Olympic gold medals.

Biles was born in Columbus, Ohio, in 1997. She began training in gymnastics at the age of six and quickly rose through the ranks. She made her senior international debut in 2013 and won her first all-around world championship title in 2015.

In 2016, Biles became the first African-American woman to win the Olympic all-around individual gold medal. She also won gold medals in the team competition, vault, floor exercise, and balance beam. She was the most decorated athlete at the Rio Olympics, winning four gold medals and a bronze.

Biles continued her dominance in the sport after Rio. She won three more all-around world championship titles in 2018, 2019, and 2021. She also won gold medals in the team competition and floor exercise at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.

Biles is known for her incredible athleticism, grace, and power. She is also a role model for young athletes around the world. She has spoken out about important issues such as mental health and racial injustice.
