Simone Biles is the most decorated gymnast in the world, with four Olympic gold medals and 25 world championship wins. At age 24, she is still breaking new ground in the sport, and she will be leading the U.S. gymnastics team in Tokyo this month. And Biles has accomplished all of this tremendous success while facing many challenges in her personal life.

In WSJ. Magazine, sports reporter Louise Radnofsky has a profile of Simone Biles. Radnofsky spoke with Biles about her remarkable career and how she keeps gymnastics in perspective amid enormous pressure. Radnofsky’s article, called “Simone Biles Will Not Be Denied,” is available to read (and listen to) in Apple News+.
