The 18-year-old Hmong American’s win was a much-needed morale boost among what has otherwise been a pretty bleak Olympic Games. In turn, the gymnast inspired three apt words to trend on Twitter: “SHE DID IT.”
“I was nervous, but I did my best, and I’m super proud of myself,” Lee told reporters after the competition, per NPR. “It’s crazy. I didn’t ever think I’d be here.” Biles, the defending Olympic champion, had been favored to take home the top prize in the individual all-around. But after withdrawing from the team event following her vault performance, Biles announced she would not be competing in the individual event.
