Simone Biles arrived in Tokyo a week ago, with her sights set firmly on the gold medals. Five years earlier in Rio, she finished at the top of the podium on four occasions and returned with a bronze medal as well.

Without the presence of crowds, the gymnastics audience back at home will miss the usual cacophony of noises that accompany Biles once she completes her daredevil moves.

Nonetheless, they can set their alarm clock to wake up in time to catch Simone Biles in action.

Simone Biles emerged out of the 2019 World Championships with gold medals in all individual events except the Uneven Bars. She was also a part of the women's team's all-around event that bagged top honors. Biles may improve to a bronze medal finish in the Uneven Bars if she can qualify for the finals.
