Biles & Quaas: "For ever Young!" |
Six weeks after the Olympic Games in Tokyo, superstar Simone BILES had mused after she had stopped her Olympic competing: "I should have stopped before Tokyo!"
A good six weeks after her engagement to Jonathan Owens, she expressed herself in a USA Today interview again, but rather in the opposite way: "I want to see what I'm capable of, how talented I can be," said the now 25-year-old exceptional athlete, that she has come back to the sport and she added: "Today I can really say that I have no regrets, but maybe I could give a little more to see what is possible."
It is unlikely that she was thinking of a similar "age record" for the German senior gymnast Johanna Quaas, the oldest competitive gymnast in the world according to the Guinness Book of World Records. The two extraordinary gymnasts with an age difference of 71 (!!) years met in Hollywood in 2017 on a CNN TV show emblematic of "For Ever Young."
... but you never know!
