Video: Tom Brady Attends Simone Biles, Suni Lee's Final Paris Olympic Gymnastics Day
August 5, 2024
NFL legend Tom Brady was on hand Monday to watch the final day of artistic gymnastics in the 2024 Summer Olympics.
The occasion was even more consequential as it's potentially the last time Simone Biles will compete in the Summer Games.

Monday was a mixed bag for the United States.
Team USA didn't have a representative in the men's parallel bars and then watched Simone Biles and Suni Lee both fall off the balance beam, thus missing out on a podium spot. Biles and Jordan Chiles went on to finish second and third respectively in the floor exercise.
Brady was clearly left impressed with Biles' routine.
Brady told People's Gillian Telling in June he planned on attending the Summer Olympics with his daughter, Vivian. The future Hall of Famer previously took a moment to get a selfie with U.S. rugby star Ilona Maher.
The trip presented the chance to see more than just the Olympians on display. Brady also met with South Carolina women's basketball coach Dawn Staley in the French capital.
dawnstaley @dawnstaleyYall I can not lie to you….don't you ever ever look directly into <a href="https://twitter.com/TomBrady?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@TomBrady</a> eyes……this man is seriously beautiful. And I shook his hand….the Super Bowlssss hand. And the hand was just as gorgeous. Ok I'm done but for real. <a href="https://t.co/xwKwT2dlsN">pic.twitter.com/xwKwT2dlsN</a>
This is probably when the 47-year-old feels good about his decision to retire from the NFL in 2023. Going to Paris for the Summer Games certainly beats working out at training camp.
