Biles finished with a score of 62.198, followed by Raisman with a 60.098, and Russia’s Aliya Mustafina who earned the bronze with a 58.665. The 1-2 finish marks only the second time in history the U.S. has swept the top two spots on the podium in the women’s all-around competition. Nastia Liukin and Shawn Johnson earned gold and silver at the 2008 Olympics Games in Beijing, China. Biles’ victory gives the United States a fourth consecutive gold medal in the women’s all-around.
