Simone Biles, because who else? 😌🙌⁣
•⁣
Sports Illustrated has announced that their 2024 Sportsperson of the Year is none other than gymnastics champion, mental health advocate, and cultural icon Simone Biles. GOAT things only. 🐐⁣
•⁣
“I don’t think the reality has set in of what I’ve exactly done in the sport,” Biles told Sports Illustrated. “I can see it, and I hear it from people, and I see a glimpse of it, but the full magnitude I don’t think I’ve realized just yet.” ✨⁣
•⁣
“I don’t think I’ll realize ’til maybe I retire and look back in a couple years like, Damn, she was good. Because I can see that, but I do it every day. So for me, it’s normal.” You’re an inspiration to all of us, @simonebiles. 🥹⁣
•⁣
Previous Sportsperson of the Year winners include Billie Jean King, Wayne Gretzky, Serena Williams, Tom Brady, Derek Jeter, LeBron James and Megan Rapinoe, among others. Talk about elite company. 🤩⁣
•⁣
Biles will be honored at the Sportsperson of the Years awards ceremony at the Wynn Last Vegas, taking place on January 7. 👏⁣
