Who won 2016 Olympic all-around silver behind Simone Biles?

Aly Raisman won the 2016 Olympic all-around silver medal behind Simone Biles.

The women’s artistic individual all-around final took place on August 11, 2016, at Rio de Janeiro’s Arena Olímpica do Rio. Biles won gold with 62.198 points, while Raisman earned silver with 60.098. Russia’s Aliya Mustafina took bronze with 58.665.

Raisman’s result was especially notable because she was the captain of the U.S. team and had returned to Olympic competition after the 2012 Games. She also helped the United States win team gold in Rio, then added another silver medal in the floor exercise final.

A frequent confusion involves Gabby Douglas, the 2012 Olympic all-around champion. Douglas ranked third in the qualification round, but the Olympic two-per-country rule allowed only two U.S. gymnasts into the individual final, so Raisman and Biles advanced. Raisman’s silver made her a six-time Olympic medalist.
