Roughly one month after she took the Rio Olympics by storm on her way to four gold medals, gymnast Simone Biles has disclosed that she has ADHD and has taken medication for it since she was a child. The U.S. gymnast made the announcement Tuesday after the World Anti-Doping Association (WADA) disclosed that Russian hackers had publicly released the confidential records of some U.S. Olympic athletes, including Biles’. Biles’ leaked data showed that she had tested positive for methylphenidate, also often known as Ritalin. Gymnastics wrote in a statement that Biles had received an exemption since she takes it because of her medical condition. “Simone has filed the proper paperwork per USADA and WADA requirements, and there is no violation,” Steve Penny, president of USA Gymnastics, said in a statement.
