- Simone Biles claimed a record-equaling 23rd medal at the gymnastics world championships on Saturday, leading an American one-two finish in the vault final in Stuttgart.
The 22-year-old has now matched Belarusian Vitaly Scherbo’s record tally of 23 world medals. Biles holds 17 gold medals across four championships against 12 for Scherbo, who competed in five world events between 1991 and 1996. Four-time Olympic champion Biles was joined on the podium by team mate Jade Carey, who finished with an average score of 14.883 for her second world medal in three years on the apparatus.
