Simone Biles opened up about competing with Rebeca Andrade following a win against her in the women’s all-around finals during the 2024 Paris Olympics. In the finals, Biles topped the competition scoring 59.131, only 1.199 points ahead of Andrade (57.932) and compatriot Suni Lee (56.465).

In a post-event interview after all-around victory, she praised the Brazilian gymnastics star for keeping her on her toes and bringing out the best in her, adding:

“For me, personally tonight means the world to me. It's just so crazy I don't want to compete with Rebecca anymore. I'm tired. She [Rebeca Andrade] is way too close. I've never had an athlete that close so it definitely put me on my toes and brought out the best athlete in myself. I am excited and proud to compete with her but I don't like it anymore. It’s making me uncomfortable guys. I don't like that feeling. I was stressing.”

She further explained in the interview why she chose to perform the Yurchenko double pike on her vault apparatus, adding that Andrade was catching up to her in the scores.
