Is there a rivalry brewing between the two gymnastics heavyweights?he world of gymnastics is competitive and cutthroat. It takes great skill and endurance to represent the sport at an Olympic level, and Simone Biles has combined both fortune and undeniable talent to suit up for the United States at her third Olympic Games later this month.But is Olivia Dunne coming for her crown? Dunne, a star collegiate gymnast at Louisiana State University, is just as famous for her social media presence as she is for her acrobatic talents. When Dunne speaks, people listen — and she had something to say to Biles this week, before the Olympics begin in Paris.Dunne’s fiery messageDuring an appearance with boyfriend Paul Skenes on the MLB All-Star red carpet on Tuesday, Dunnerevealed her excitement at watching Biles compete again, following her shock withdrawal from the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo. The message of support came as Dunne, in a silver sequined dress, walked the red carpet prior to Skenes‘ start in the Midsummer Classicin Arlington, Texas.”Simone has always been a GOAT, and I think that this is like her revenge tour,” Dunne said. “What happened in 2020 was a freak thing, and I think that she’s out for revenge and she’s gonna probably win.”It has been a long, arduous journey for Biles to return to the top of her game. Biles, citing problems with her confidence and her mental health, left the Tokyo Olympics before the gymnastics finals — and with just two medals to her name, neither of them gold.Biles has never been afraid to speak her mind, and she will undoubtedly use Dunne’s motivational message as fuel for her return to Olympic competition. Biles is already one of the most decorated gymnasts in history, and one more medal will make her the most-honored US gymnast ever.
