Simone Biles, the renowned American gymnast and 11-time Olympic medalist, has been named Sports Illustrated's 2024 Sportsperson of the Year. The honor recognizes her extraordinary achievements in gymnastics, including her historic comeback at the 2024 Paris Olympics, where she won four medals: three golds in the team, all-around, and vault events, and one silver in floor exercise. These victories made her the most decorated gymnast in U.S. history with a total of 11 Olympic medals. At age 27, Biles also broke Shannon Miller's record for the most Olympic medals won by an American gymnast. Beyond her athletic accomplishments, Biles has been a vocal advocate for mental health awareness, sharing her struggles and triumphs to inspire others. Her recognition by Sports Illustrated highlights her impact both within and beyond the world of sports. Biles will receive the award during the Sports Illustrated ceremony on January 7, 2025, in Las Vegas, hosted by Keegan-Michael Key.
