Biles retains world all-around title in Nanning
AMERICAN Simone Biles retained her world women’s all-around gymnastics title, fighting off a late challenge from Romania’s Larisa Andreea Iordache.
The 17-year-old Biles finished the four-apparatus final at 60.231 points, 0.466 better than Iordache at 59.765. Fellow American Kyla Ross, the 2013 runner-up to Biles, finished third at 58.232 in the final at the Guangxi Gymnasium in Nanning.
Biles became the first female gymnast since Russia’s Svetlana Khorkina in 2003 to win a second straight all-around world crown. She is also the second US woman to ever win back-to-back world all-around titles with Shannon Miller trailing the blaze in 1993 and 1994. It was her second gold as she led her country to a second straight women’s team title on Wednesday.
