Of Course, Gabby Douglas
Next, we have the famous American gymnast Gabby Douglas. You may remember her from the Fierce Five team at the London Olympics. There she won gold in both the team and individual all-around competitions. Again in Rio, she made the team, which was called the Final Five. There she made history again by winning gold in the team competition. So what exactly does everyone need to remember Gabby for? Why is she so much more remarkable than other gymnasts in history?
Of Course, Gabby Douglas
Shattering Records
Perhaps, the most impressive thing is all the records she shattered. Let’s start with the fact that she is the first African American in Olympic history to ever win individual all-around. That’s not even all! She is also the first to be awarded gold in both team and individual at one Olympic games. Amazing!
