Biles said that she entered the French capital with a sense of calmness she never had before a tournament. She also said that she was happy that the competition was over because of the stress involved.

"Actually, arriving in Paris, I felt this sense of calm that I've never had before for a competition. But I think you know, like, we're so prepared and we're ready, and the hard part is over and this is the easy part, (not) physically, more mentally," Biles said, as quoted by Olympics.com

"But once I got into the Village, I think that's when all the nerves set in. So, going into it, not so nervous. Coming out, it's just like a breath of fresh air. I feel so much better now that it's over because you know how stressful it is. So, I just couldn't wait for it to be done," she added.

Simone Biles and Aly Raisman both impressed at the Rio Olympics in 2016, being part of the team that won the team event. While Biles won gold in the all-around and floor exercise tournaments, Raisman clinched silver in both competitions.
