Thursday, July 29 Olympic Results

-- Sunisa Lee won the gold medal in the women’s gymnastics all-around competition, continuing the streak of American women winning the all-around for the fifth straight Olympics. The 18-year-old beat Brazil’s Rebeca Andrade, who won silver after stepping out of bounds twice in the floor exercise, the final event, and the Russian Olympic Committee’s Angelina Melnikova, who won bronze. 

-- Simone Biles said in a series of Instagram Stories Thursday that she’s struggling with the “twisties,” and posted two since-removed videos showing her struggling with dismounts on the uneven bars in practice. The “twisties” is a mental block that causes gymnasts to lose awareness of their location, and control of their bodies, when they're in the air. Biles said it started the morning after the preliminary competition in Tokyo. It’s still unknown if Biles, who withdrew from the team and all-around competitions, will be able to compete in the individual events.

-- The U.S. women’s basketball team beat Japan 86-69 for a 2-0 record so far in Tokyo.

-- South Africa’s Tatjana Schoenmaker set the first individual swimming world record of the Olympics in her gold medal swim in the women’s 200-meter breaststroke. Her time of two minutes, 18.95 seconds broke the previous record of two minutes, 19.11 seconds. American teammates Lilly King and Annie Lazor won silver and bronze, respectively.

-- American Connor Fields, the 2016 Olympics BMX racing gold medalist, was carried off in a stretcher after crashing in the third semifinal heat. The 28-year-old landed hard off a jump heading into the first turn and lay on the track before being carried off the course. The USA’s cycling team’s doctor said in a later update, “We can confirm that Connor Fields is awake and awaiting further medical evaluation. We will share additional updates as they become available.” Fields qualified for the final, but wasn’t able to race.
