Team USA gymnasts Simone Biles and Laurie Hernandez have each won gold already in Rio - Biles has captured three golds and is favored to win even more - and on Monday the teammates will face off against each other in the balance beam event final. Just before the competition, Biles shared an amazing photo herself with Hernandez in their [even] younger days.
