GOAT Simone Biles’ reaction to Mikaela Shiffrin’s historic slalom gold medal
People are still running around Mikaela Shifrin’s historic victory in the women’s slalom at the Winter Olympics in Italy in 2026. Among them is a famous face: Simone Biles.
Biles praised Shiffrin for winning the gold medal, ending a long drought and cementing her status as one of the greatest alpine skiers in history.
30-year-old Shiffrin shared an emotional message on Instagram after her triumph, and Biles, 28, proudly expressed her support.
“GOATED 🎉💕 So excited for you!” Biles commented.
The star gymnast also shared Shiffrin’s inspiring post on her Instagram Story, adding the caption: “Damn rock star! So proud of you!”
With two near-perfect runs down the snow-covered slopes of Olympia dell’Tofane, Shiffrin rewrote the script of her remarkable career. As she said in her touching message, she is proud to be “breaking barriers and raising the level of our sport.” He now has three gold medals in the four-year competition.
Biles must know exactly how Shiffrin feels. After all, she owns seven Olympic gold medals. Biles also helped reshape gymnastics with its enduring excellence, raising the standard of dominance. Its influence includes difficulty, security and culture.
Shifrin ended her stay at the 2026 Winter Olympics in the best possible way. She was in a league of her own from the first run, posting the fastest opening time. In her second run, she finished 1.50 seconds ahead of the field – the largest lead in alpine skiing in nearly three decades.
With Biles cheering her on, Shiffrin will only be more motivated to push herself to, as she said in her powerful message, chase, earn, dare, dream and believe.
