10. Alysha Newman
Alysha is a pole vaulter from Canada. With a 4.75-meter vault, she won the gold medal at the 2018 Gold Coast Championships and broke the competition record. She also made headlines a few years ago when she got into a fight at a Pennsylvania casino with her boyfriend, NFL linebacker Anthony Chickillo (don’t worry, we have also never heard of him).
9. Simone Biles
American gymnast Simone Biles is from Texas, and at only 24 years old, she is already among the most accomplished gymnasts in American history. She has won more than 30 medals. She will undoubtedly remain on the national team for a very long time given her youth. Did you know her favorite food is Italian? Must be great doing gymnastics in the morning and coming home to a big bowl of pasta!
