<li>Gymnast Simone Biles has won 20 all-around competitions in a row for the last six years.</li>
<li>She won her sixth U.S. all-around title at the U.S. Gymnastics Championship this weekend with 4.95 points.</li>
<li>Clara Schroth Lomady, a gymnast from the 40s and 50s has six U.S. all-around titles and is now tied with Biles.</li>
</ul>
<p>TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – In the Rio 2016 Olympics, gymnast Simone Biles proved to herself and the world that she was a true Olympic champion, taking home four gold medals and one bronze. In just one Olympic showing she became the female American gymnast with the most medals. Now the 22-year-old is back to competing in order to get to Tokyo 2020 and she’s already made history.</p>
<p>Biles became the first female gymnast in the history of the sport to complete a triple twisting double somersault during her floor routine. Not only that, but she was also the first to do a perfect double-twisting double somersault for her balance beam performance. The U.S. Gymnastics Championships in Kansas City, Missouri was a night of historical firsts, all made by Biles.</p>
<p>At such a young age, Biles continues to make a name for herself. She is now the first woman to be the proud holder of six U.S. all-around titles in almost 70 years.</p>
<blockquote><p>"You'll go your whole entire career and everybody will tell you you're great. But the minute you say you're good, people are like, 'Oh my gosh, you're so cocky! Cancel her,' or this or that," <a href="https://www.eonline.com/news/1063823/simone-biles-just-made-gymnastics-history-and-the-2020-olympics-can-t-come-soon-enough">said Biles</a>. "There should be times where we can celebrate whenever we do a good routine. Or if you've been on a winning streak for a year. Or so forth. I think it's something you should have pride in. Not be cocky about it, but have pride in it."</p></blockquote>
<p class="large-writing">The 2020 Olympics</p>
<p>While there was uncertainty as to whether or not Biles would be returning to competing in gymnastics, she has decided to continue her advancement in the sport. The coach she’s had since she was seven years old, Aimee Boorman, moved to Florida to train there after the 2016 Olympics. Biles did not follow her.</p>
<p>Instead, after taking a year off from competition, Biles hired two new coaches. Cecile and Laurent Landi, of Texas, are now part of Biles’ team. They helped gymnast Madison Kocian receive a silver medal in the Rio Olympics for the uneven bars routine. Her new coaches are more about pushing her to go further rather than have routines that are perfect but with moves that are less difficult.</p>
<p>Biles will be competing in an October qualifier for a spot in the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo. She has said that the reason she’s able to do so well is that she is no longer out to prove herself. She is competing simply for the love of the sport. <a href="https://www.olympicbettingodds.com/">OlympicBettingOdds.com</a> feels that should she make those historical moves in her performances once again at the qualifiers, they will be named after her.</p>

<li>Usain Bolt is the current world record holder for both the 100 and 200-meter sprints.</li>

<li>Bolt wants to watch many different sports during the 2020 Olympics.</li>
</ul>
<p>TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Usain Bolt has advice for Tokyo 2020 athletes and is excited to watch the Games.</p>
<p class="large-writing">Bolt And Japan</p>
<p>Bolt holds the world record for both the 100 and 200-meter sprint. Because of that, his word carries a lot of weight for incoming athletes. The 100-meter sprint world record is 9.58 seconds and it was set by Bolt in 2009. Bolt set the 200-meter sprint world record the same year with a time of 19.19 seconds.</p>
<p>Bolt definitely sees the potential in upcoming athletes. Abdul Hakim Sani Brown is a Japanese athlete currently attending the University of Florida. Sani Brown runs a 100-meter sprint with a time of 9.97 seconds. Sani Brown now holds the Japanese national record with that time.</p>
<blockquote><p>"I think he has a lot of potential for the future as he is still young. With the right coaching and advice, he can get even faster and hopefully make the Olympic final next year," <a href="https://english.kyodonews.net/news/2019/07/d1e3f1665132-feature-olympics-bolt-expecting-high-voltage-games-in-tokyo.html">said Bolt</a>.</p></blockquote>
<p>Usain Bolt said that he believes that people are capable of running faster than he ever did. With the right training, Sani Brown could be that athlete. But being the competitor that he is, Bolt wants his records to “stay for some years to come.”</p>
<p>Bolt further went on to say that the Japanese have great athletes. He said although they are not fast individually, they are well drilled. Bolt said that is why they ended up in second for the 4x100-meter relay in Rio 2016.</p>
<p class="large-writing">The Spectator Life</p>
<p><a href="https://olympicbettingodds.com">OlympicBettingOdds.com</a> suspects now that Bolt is now retired, he is planning to enjoy the 2020 Olympics as a spectator. Normally, he would watch soccer, athletics, basketball, and swimming events. But he would not get the full experience due to the fact he had to compete himself. Now as a spectator, he will finally have the time to enjoy himself at the Olympics. He will likely watch these sports among others while he is in Tokyo.</p>
<p>But that isn’t all Bolt has to say about the upcoming Olympics. The sprint legend has some advice for the athletes who will compete.</p>
<blockquote><p>"It is important to go out there and enjoy the moment. Sometimes it is better not to read everything that is written about you or worry what people are saying ahead of the competition," said Bolt.</p></blockquote>
