RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) – The Latest on the 2016 Summer Olympics from Rio de Janeiro (all times local):
4:15 a.m.
American Simone Biles heads into the women’s individual all around gymnastics competition at the Rio Olympics with a none-too shabby record: she has already won three world championships and a team Olympic gold just a few days ago.
Her floor routine also includes a move that is now named for her – how cool is that?
Aly Raisman, another American who won gold with Biles in the team competition, is also in the mix Thursday but teammate Gabby Douglas, the defending Olympic champion, will be on the sidelines.
On Wednesday night, Japanese gymnast Kohei Uchimura won the men’s individual all around gold medal, adding to an amazing record that includes three world championship titles and gold at the 2012 London Olympics.
