Simone Biles Prepares for 2024 Olympic Qualifying

Simone Biles kicked off her Paris 2024 Olympics campaign today as the U.S. women's gymnastics team began the qualifiers at Bercy Arena. At 27, Biles is the oldest female gymnast on a U.S. Olympic team since 1952 and is aiming for her fifth Olympic gold medal. She has submitted a new element for the uneven bars to the International Gymnastics Federation, which could become her sixth signature move. The competition will also see intense rivalry between fellow American gymnasts Sunisa Lee and Jordan Chiles for a spot in the all-around finals. Biles is in good spirits, having rested before the qualifiers, with her family and husband supporting her during the Games. The U.S. women's gymnastics team is expected to qualify for the finals, with the top eight teams advancing from today’s events.
