Olympic champion Simone Biles became the first woman to win five US Women’s Gymnastics Championships all-around titles and wore an outfit to show her support for survivors of sexual abuse. The 21-year-old American is continuing her comeback after a two-year break. In January she was among more than 100 gymnasts to say they were abused by ex-United States team doctor Larry Nassar. Nassar received a prison sentence of up to 175 years after pleading guilty to criminal sexual conduct. Biles said the teal leotard she wore during Sunday’s event was the designated colour for survivors of sexual abuse. “It is for the survivors,” she told ESPN. “I stand with all of them, and I think it’s kind of special to unite.”
