Despite retirement, Tom Brady remains one of the premier athletes in the US! The soon-to-be Hall of Famer boasts a remarkable list of accolades, but not far behind is gymnast Simone Biles, a decorated Olympic medalist who consistently makes impressive strides in his sport. In this piece, we will discuss the incredible achievements of Biles, Brady, and the all-time tennis legend, Novak Djokovic.

Tom Brady’s journey is nothing short of a cinematic tale, starting as the 199th pick in the 6th round and then fighting through adversity to become one of the NFL’s most successful quarterbacks, amassing an impressive total of 7 Super Bowl rings.
