Note from GK: Pilling may occur on PolyTek and SubFuse Sublimated fabrics when it
comes in contact with any other rough surface (examples are mats, grips,
floor mats, etc.). The back/bottom area of the garment tends to pill
easier than other areas. Unfortunately this is an issue we cannot avoid
due to the nature of the fabric. Elite Sportswear will not be
responsible for replacing or repairing your garment if pilling occurs.

Simone Biles is the most decorated American female gymnast in World
Championships history. She was officially added back to the National
Team on March 1, 2018. Her first competition was the U.S. Classic where
she won the all-around title, gold on floor and gold on balance beam.
Biles also recorded the highest single vault score at this event. In
August 2018, Biles competed at the National Championships where she
placed first on every single event - she is the first woman to do this
since Dominique Dawes in 1994. Biles won the all-around 6.55 points
ahead of second place finisher and set a record for most national
all-around titles with five wins! She has a total of 14 World medals, 10
of which are gold, and was awarded the 2016 Female Olympic Athlete of
the Year. She has a total of 14 World medals, 10
of which are gold. In 2016, Simone Biles won the All-Around Gold Medal for a
third consecutive year. She was also awarded the 2016 Female Olympic Athlete of
the Year. At the 2016 Olympics, she was awarded the Gold Medal for Women's
Individual All-Around, Women's Vault, and Women's Floor, the Bronze Medal in
Women's Balance Beam, and a Team Gold Medal. Simone placed
fourth with dancing partner Sasha Farber in ABC's Dancing with the Stars.
From USAG:
In taking their fourth consecutive World team title Tuesday night in
Doha, Qatar, Simone Biles, Kara Eaker, Morgan Hurd, Grace McCallum and
Riley McCusker also took their place among the growing pantheon of the
great American women’s gymnastics teams.
What will set them apart in the collective memory is that this talented
young squad captured the gold by 8.766 points, their largest-ever margin
of victory at a World Championships or Olympic Games, as they extended a
golden streak that is the envy of the gymnastics world. In a team
competition completely dominated by the Americans, Russia finished a
distant second, China third.
That the U.S. would win the team competition was taken as a given all
week, and when Tuesday’s final came around, nothing, even minor miscues
on balance beam and floor exercise from superstar Biles, deterred the
Americans as they drove straight toward their goal.
In addition to having the top scores on every event courtesy of Eaker on
beam and Biles everywhere else, the USA’s team score for bars, beam and
floor was more than a point higher than their nearest competitors. By
the time Biles stepped onto the floor to close out the American’s
competition, they had built such a formidable lead that the four-time
Olympic gold medalist needed only to score higher than 6.0 for them to
win.
“For all of us, it’s a dream come true,” said McCusker, who missed out
on last year’s Worlds due to injury. “We’ve been dreaming of this since
we were little, and I think it’s just an amazing experience.”
Biles looked unaffected by the kidney stone she’s nicknamed The Doha
Pearl. If anything, she had too much energy, resulting in having to grab
the balance beam after a front pike and bounding out of bounds on her
opening tumbling pass on floor.
“I feel pretty good,” Biles said. “I’m in a little bit of pain, but
nothing too crazy in which I can’t compete. We’re managing the pain, so
that’s the most important part.”
Hurd brought clean execution and the steadiness she’s become known for
as she earned a second World gold to go with her all-around title from
2017. Eaker contributed the highest beam score of the evening -- 14.433
-- for a beautiful set. “I wasn’t exactly relaxed but I was definitely
just focusing on doing my normal gymnastics,” she said. “Not focusing
about the nerves, just taking deep breaths and remaining calm.”
It was a very happy birthday for McCallum, who rocked solid routines on
vault and floor on her sweet 16. “I felt more comfortable for sure, and I
knew what to do and how to stay calm,” McCallum said. “It’s definitely
really cool. I thought that team finals is the perfect day: It’s super
fun and it’s all about the team.”
And there was precision from the artistic McCusker, who took full
advantage of a second shot at the balance beam after coming off during
Saturday’s qualification round. The decision to use McCusker in the team
final and not Hurd, the reigning World silver medalist on the event,
was only fair, women’s High-performance Team Coordinator Tom Forster
said.
