Simone Biles carries the American flag during the “Heroes of the Games” portion of the 2016 Rio Summer Olympics Closing Ceremony at Maracana Stadium on Sunday (August 21) in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

The 19-year-old Olympian won four gold medals and one bronze medal during all of the gymnastics competitions at the summer games.

“I’m afraid the flag is going to be too heavy for me,” Simone said about being worried for the closing ceremony. “Michael Phelps is so much taller and he seemed to carry it so easily, and I’m very short. So I’m a little worried about that part.”

Tom Daley took to Twitter on Saturday (August 20) to express how he felt after not qualifying for the finals for the 10m platform dive.

The 22-year-old athlete, who already scored a bronze medal at the Olympics, needed a score of 403.25 during the semi-finals to make it to the finals. He scored a 50.40, and was eliminated. In the preliminary round, he scored a 571.85.

“It’s really hard to accept. I’ve worked so hard,” Tom told the BBC. “Yesterday I scored the highest score ever in an Olympic Games. Today it wasn’t meant to be. That’s what diving does sometimes.”

“I truly am heartbroken because I feel like I am in the peak physical condition and I could have won,” Tom added.

In addition, Tom tweeted, “Truly heartbroken. but I will never give up on my dream of being an Olympic champion…Now time to head to the pool to cheer on Qui Bo to win this one! let’s go Qui Bo!”

The U.S. Olympic Committee is not too happy with Ryan Lochte.

CEO Scott Blackmun told NBC News that “further action” is coming after the 32-year-old swimmer admitted to being intoxicated and exaggerating what he called a “robbery” at a gas station during the 2016 Rio Summer Olympics.

“They let down our athletes,” Scott said. “They let down Americans.”

He added, “People are going to remember the incident, but that doesn’t define these games.”

Paul Chelimo takes home silver for Team USA during the 5000m race Saturday night (August 20) in Rio de Janiero.

After coming in second to Britain’s Mo Farrah, the Olympic runner was informed during a post-race interview on NBC that he had been disqualified for a lane infringement by apparently stepping outside of the lane.

After much debate, Paul was later reinstated when officials said that he had not broken any rules.

Mo, who had stumbled twice during the week, took him gold with his impressive time of 13:03:03. Mo is the first man in 40 years to win gold medals in the 5,000 and 10,000 races in two separate Olympics games.

Hagos Gebrhiwet of Ethiopia took home the bronze medal.

Congrats, Paul!
