>> pretty impressive. is it's history making. when you say goal medal, i saw your smile got a lot bigger. le you should be very proud of yourself, which i know you are. you stepped up for team usa. you had to sub in for your teammate jocelyn, who got injured during warm-ups. so when did you find out you were competing in two additional events and what went through your mind when you found out? >> the day was full of so many emotions. i don't think i have ever felt that many emotions in one competition. from feeling sad, stressed, disappointed, excited, happy and proud. but i found out i was going to be doing two additional e srepts events after jocelyn had an uncharacteristic vault landing. so she landed short on her vault. she kind of stood there. so we weren't sure if it was a short landing. and she'd be okay. but i had to switch my line set and do two additional routines for team sauce.

>> mentally you had to prepare differently? you had to change your mind set? >> yeah. because i was just getting ready to cheer on my teammates because they just had 1:30 to warm up their vault. when she landed, my teammates were like, take off your clothes. i had to get up, get ready and warm up my vaults to get ready is to compete. >> i can only imagine. almost like you didn't have enough time to worry about the stress. you just had to do it. you crushed it. >> yeah. >> this victory also makes simone biles the most decorated female gymnast in history. is what does it mean to have her back? >> she is an incredible athlete. i can't believe she won her first world all around here in belgium ten years ago. so i was just so happy to see her do so well on that competition floor an win another gold medal for team usa. incredible difficulty on all the events and the way she handles the pressure is so incredible. >> you're balancing elite gymnastics.

is you are also a premed student. you're competing for the university of florida as well. how are you balancing it all? >> i mean, it's definitely a lot to balance between school, college gymnastics, world gymnastics, competing for team usa and keeping up with my studies. i'm just taking it day by day. just learning how to balance it all especially since i'm taking in person classes right now. my professors have been very helpful with me and my schedule, and they have even sent me some good luck videos and e-mails and messages. >> i mentioned all the stuff is you're doing, but if school and competition aren't enough to keep you busy, you also run your own business out of your dorm room. tell us about that. >> yeah. school and gymnastics are definitely the priorities but after that i love to manage my business and website. i call it the leanne wong boutique. it started in december of 2021
