Simone Biles will always defend her teammates. While embracing Team USA’s epic victory on Tuesday, July 30, at the Paris Olympic Games, the 27-year-old gymnastics GOAT shared a celebratory photo to her Instagram — and fans are convinced that her caption referred to MyKayla Skinner‘s past comments about the team.
“Lack of talent, lazy, olympic champions,” Simone captioned her post.
Fellow gymnast and friend McKayla Maroney seemingly confirmed the subtle diss toward MyKayla, 27, by commenting on the athlete’s caption, “It doesn’t get more iconic than this,” McKayla, 28, wrote. “She f’d around n found out fr [sic]. Feels like I need to apologize just to redeem my first name.”
Part 1: The gymnastics community cannot let these comments to be swept under the rug. I will be as respectful as possible to @mykaylaskinner but instead of engaging in meaningful conversation she blocks anyone who holds her accountable for her words. pic.twitter.com/Y69pwCxnUG

McKayla was also referencing the hilarious nickname that Team USA chose for themselves, which is “F**k around and find out.”
Countless fans swarmed the comments section to point out the possible clapback against MyKayla. One commenter wrote, “Lol she’s probably so jealous that you guys won.” Another chimed in, “This is the caption! I feel like you’ve been saving this one for a few weeks.”
Last month, a video of MyKayla criticizing the U.S. Olympic team surfaced online.
“Besides Simone, I feel like the talent and the depth just isn’t like what it used to be,” the athlete said. “Just notice like, I mean, obviously a lot of girls don’t work as hard. The girls just don’t have the work ethic.”
