Remember this girl? Kerri Strug. Badly injured ankle. Coach tells her the team needs to perform the vault, in spite of the ankle injury. She does it, and it's very painful. Coach has to carry her off.
She did it for her teammates.
Biles simply said, nope, I'm not on tonight, so goodbye and good luck. I'll cheer for you from the sidelines. Mental health, ya know?
Was she required to do those difficult routines? Could she have dialed it back?
Every athlete risks injury, every time out. If you bail on your teammates during a TEAM event at the Olympics....wow.
She's very likeable and seems like a good person. I think she made a mistake.
