Those who’ve been streaming the 2024 Summer Olympic Games are sure to know that there are a variety of sports that encompass the international event. From basketball and tennis to rugby and archery, many disciplines are represented at the Paris-held games. It could be argued, though, that many have been looking forward to watching Simone Biles and the U.S. Women’s Gymnastics team. Well, the young ladies didn’t disappoint, as they managed to win the gold in the team final. And, after that, Biles succinctly responded to her former teammate MyKayla Skinner, who previously criticized this year’s team.

What Did McKayla Skinner Say About The 2024 Women’s Gymnastics Team?

Now 27-year-old MyKayla Skinner competed alongside Simone Biles and others on the U.S. Women’s team during the 2020 Tokyo games (which were held in 2021 due to COVID). A while ago, Skimmer – who has retired from the sport and is currently a vlogger – commented on the 2024 team in a since-deleted YouTube video. Skimmer’s comments were captured by The New York Post and, as noted by the outlet, the Olympic silver medal winner chastised Biles’ teammates for their supposed lack of commitment:

Besides Simone, I feel like the talent and the depth just isn’t like what it used to be. Just notice like, I mean, obviously a lot of girls don’t work as hard. The girls just don’t have the work ethic.
