It’s been up for debate whether Simone Biles is superhuman, and now that she has broken record after record, the world is taking notice. In a sport that receives most of its coverage for one month every four years during the Olympic Games, Biles has yet to truly become a household name despite her outstanding accomplishments. But Rio awaits, and she is surely the favorite for gold. This three-time World all-around champion hasn’t lost one all-around competition since 2013. She’s a bundle of talent and bubbly energy and she uses it to win gold medals for her country—not a bad gig.
ESPNW has announced their Super Impact25 list, which includes 25 phenomenal athletes who are some of the highest achievers in all of sport, including Biles, Carli Lloyd, Lydia Ko, Serena Williams, Ronda Rousey and Misty Copeland. Marvel artists turned ESPNWÂ’s list of these all-star athletes into super versions of themselves. They're the #SuperSquad.
Yesterday, Biles was named Team USA's 'Best of November' women's athlete of the month on the heels of her historic Worlds performance. Her list of accomplishments and accolades is growing by the day--something she never would have imagined for herself a few years ago.
