Dating a gymnast

Stacey Ervin Jr. Let’s go! In Stuttgart, Germany, where this year’s World Championships were held, Biles won five out of six possible gold medals to bring her career medal total at the world championships to a record 25—more than any other gymnast, ever. Just as memorably, she successfully executed “the Biles,” a double-twisting double-tucked somersault dismount from the balance beam, and pulled off “the Biles II”—a triple-twisting double-tucked somersault—during her floor routine.

Congratulation, babe! The whole world is proud of you!

Before the smiles and the practices, though, Biles first was subjected last week to the ongoing discouraging trend in her relationship with USA Gymnastics as it tries to settle lawsuit claims stemming from the Larry Nassar abuse scandal. As always, the latest twists came out of the blue. It was only in late January, at another training camp in Indianapolis, that Biles offered an olive branch toward federation officials in their treatment of current athletes.

Almost a month to the day later, however, USA Gymnastics submitted a proposed bankruptcy settlement that would distribute only a fraction of its potential insurance payout pool to Nasser abuse survivors while absolving the U. Olympic and Paralympic Committee, former federation president Steve Penny, former national team coordinators Bela and Martha Karolyi and others from financial liability. When that became public, whatever gains USA Gymnastics appeared to have made in the eyes of its most prominent athlete gave way, in very public fashion, to confusion and disappointment.

Anxiety high.
