Biles pushes through calf pain in qualifiers

Simone Biles battled through an apparent calf injury in Sunday’s gymnastics qualifying round to top the all-around standings, paving her way to qualify for the floor, vault and beam finals.

Biles’ prospects were suddenly in peril after she appeared to suffer a rough landing during floor warmups, having her ankle wrapped by medical staffers before she returned. Her coach, Cecile Landi, said after the competition that Biles “felt a little pain in her calf” from an apparent injury that was also bothering her in training a couple of weeks ago but that she never considered pulling out.
