Simone Biles won her third gold medal at the Paris Olympics after winning the women's vault final.
The gymnastics superstar averaged 15.300 for gold, while Tokyo 2020 champion Rebeca Andrade won silver at 14.966, followed by American Jade Carey (14.466).
For Biles, this is her overall seventh Olympic title and 10th medal at the Games.
She was previously Olympic champion in the vault at Rio 2016.
When the American warmed up her signature Yurchenko double pike, the daring vault that bears her name, Biles rolled straight to her back.
The vault, which carries with it a massive 6.4 difficulty score, .8 more than any other vault in the final, scored 15.700. Biles, then, soared her on her Cheng vault, earning a 14.900.
Team USA is second in the medal tally with 12 gold, 23 silver and 20 bronze.
