The Frenchwoman is an incredible championship skier, but the distance gold was her first individual Olympic gold, coming after the mixed relay gold on Sunday.
"It's been my dream since I was little. So now I'm going to celebrate tonight and then continue training for the upcoming races," she said at the press conference.
Simon was reported to the police by her teammate Justine Braisaz-Bouchet in 2022 for using Braisaz-Bouchet's credit card and making purchases worth tens of thousands of kronor. She received a six-month sentence last fall, five of which were suspended, and was then suspended from biathlon.
"It was a tough few months, but I'm proud of myself today. I did a perfect race."
