john yang looks at her accomplishments, and how it is resonating in hmong american communities. >> yang: judy, some of today's most inspiring olympic pictures come not only from the tokyo games, but also the suburbs of st. paul- a watch party that became a jubilant celebration when the minnesota native clinched the gold in the individual all-around competition. ( cheers and applause ) lee, who is 18 and still nursing a fractured ankle, went to tokyo aiming for silver, assuming her idol and teammate simone biles would win gold. today, she hit routine after routine, even nailing the floor exercise she and her coach and changed just this morning. afterward, lee reflected on her road to the olympics. >> the past two years have been absolutely crazy, with covid and just, my family and everything else. this medal definitely means a lot to me, because there was a point in time where i wanted to quit and i didn't think i would ever get there, including injuries and stuff. there are definitely a lot of emotions, but i'm sure proud of myself for sticking with it and believing in myself, because this medal would not be possible without my coaches, the medical team, my parents. and it just is so surreal, and i haven't e

john paul ii stayed several times during his pontificate. francis' operation came hours after he delivered his regular sunday angelus from his window overlooking str's square where he made no mention of the procedure. rather, he announced he'd be traveling to hungary and slovakia in september and he's had a busy week. he met with the u.s. secretary of state, antony blinken on monday, the iraqi prime minister friday and even held an all day prayer service for lebanon on thursday. now, this is the very first time the 84-year-old pontiff has been hospitalized since becoming pope back in 2013. the vatican says it should take about seven days for him to recover. gayle. >> chris livesay, thank you. >>> ahead, what led to this scene in the gulf of mexico. look at this. it's a churning ball of fire. i know. this is a real picture, guys. churning ball of fire right there in the water. how did they do >>> ahead, a big move for jeff bezos. it's his last day as amazon's ceo. we'll talk with the author of two books on bezos and amazon about the founder's historic run and what to expect from his successor. >>> you're watching "cbs this morning." ♪ irresistibly

st. paul, minnesota, including one very special fan. you watch your daughter win gold. what is that moment like? >> at that very moment, i was shocked, crying, and just unreal. >> reporter: her father johnee who suffered a spinal cord injury in 2019 that paralyzed him from the chest down told me what it meant to see his daughter take home the title after teammate and four-time gold medalist simone biles withdrew for mental health reasons earlier this week. >> once simone got hurt and she left, i do feel a little worried. she's the leader. she's the one that, you know, they all look up to but the girls step up and did what they did to get silver. i'm so proud of all these girls that they're so supportive of each other. >> reporter: we're all proud and that interview lee's dad told me how proud he was to have his daughter not only represent the u.s. but also his home country of laos. as for the controversy surrounding ryan's comments, "the washington post" reports his russian competitor said he has, quote, always been for clean competition, gayle. >> yeah, they're going to talk about that. thank you. >>> let's go back to suni and her dad. i saw an interview with the dad that said when she
