US superstar Simone Biles said it was just the right thing to do after she and team-mate Jordan Chiles bowed down to Olympic gold medallist Rebeca Andrade after the floor final in Paris.
Biles had been hoping to win a fourth gold at the Paris Games but a couple of mistakes meant she had to settle for silver behind the Brazilian.
However, the 27-year-old, who is the world's most decorated gymnast, was far from disappointed and instead joined Chiles in showing admiration for Andrade in one of the iconic images of these Games.
The trio also made history as the first all-black podium in the men's or women's gymnastics at the Olympics.
Biles says Andrade's so amazing, and she is a queen.
Andrade, who lost out on the all-around title to Biles last week, appreciated the show of respect, saying it was very cute of them.
Biles now has 11 Olympic medals after winning the team, the all-around and vault golds in Paris, while she was fifth in the beam final.
Meanwhile, Team China currently leads the Paris Olympics medal tally with 21 gold, 18 silver and 14 bronze, the United States of America is in second place with 20 gold, 30 silver and 28 bronze, Australia is in 3rd place with 13 gold, 11 silver and 8 bronze while hosts France are in 4th place with 12 gold, 16 silver and 18 bronze.
