Simone Biles won all the five national Titles!

Olympic champion Simone Biles (USA) compiled the highest score in the world this year when she piled up 60.100 points (!) on the first night of the U.S. women's gymnastics championship in Boston on Friday. She recorded the highest score in all four disciplines - the floor routine, balance beam, uneven bars and vault - to head defending champion Morgan Hurd on 57.000 points. The 21-year-old Biles has her sights set on more Olympic glory in Tokyo in 2020 after she claimed four gold medals in Rio in 2016.
The 21-year-old posted a two-day total of 119.850, more than six points (!) ahead of reigning world champion Morgan Hurd, of Middletown, and a full seven points clear of Riley McCusker. Biles’ margin of victory was greater than the gap between Hurd and 11th-place finisher Jordan Chiles.
Biles is the second woman to win nationals five times, joining Clara Schroth Lomady, who won six between 1945 and 1952. Biles also became the first woman since three-time Olympian Dominique Dawes in 1994 to wind up first on floor exercise, balance beam, vault and uneven bars.
