Simone Biles Will Compete at Paris Olympics, Her 3rd Team


Simone Biles was named to Team USA's women's gymnastics team after the 2024 U.S. Olympic trials in Minneapolis, marking her return to the Olympic stage after her challenges during the Tokyo Games in 2021

Speaking after trials ended on Sunday, Biles credited her journey, in part, to "trusting the process" — and to regular Thursday therapy appointments — and said, simply, "I knew I’d be back." “I truly do feel like I have the weight of the world on my shoulders at times,” Biles had told fans earlier in Tokyo, after making multiple uncharacteristic errors in the qualifying round. The gymnast continued: “The more women and young girls who believe in the essence of the Power of She, the greater the experiences we can share in each other, creating a feeling of belonging through active engagement, movement and support to help realize the strength and wisdom that resides in all of us.”
