Simone Biles held off Brazil’s Rebeca Andrade to win the all-around Paris Olympics gymnastics finals, taking home her ninth gold medal. At 27, she’s the oldest Olympic women’s gymnastics champ since 1952.

Biles’ U.S. women’s teammate, Sunisa Lee, took bronze in another feat of history — Lee is the first to follow a gold in the women’s gymnastics all-around in one Games with a medal in the same event at the following Olympics since Nadia Comaneci in 1976 and ’80.

What to know:

  • Final scores: Biles finished with 59.131. Andrade had 57.932 and Lee took 56.465.
  • Biles’ bar routine: In her first big mistake of the Olympics, Biles botched a transition from the upper bar to the lower bar, a miscue that messed with her momentum and forced her to muscle her way back into her routine.
  • How to watch: The competition started at 6:15 p.m. CEST (12:15 p.m. EDT). You can rewatch the action on NBC or the Peacock app.
