Simone Biles made a highly anticipated return to the Olympic gymnastics stage at the Paris Games, performing in front of a star-studded audience that included Tom Cruise, Lady Gaga, and Snoop Dogg. The most decorated gymnast in history, Biles scored 14.733 on the balance beam and 14.600 on the floor, despite experiencing some discomfort in her left ankle. This marked her first competitive appearance since the Tokyo Games, where she withdrew from several events due to mental health challenges. Biles' overall score of 59.566 placed her well ahead of competitors, showcasing her continued dominance in the sport. The event was seen as a redemption tour not just for Biles but also for her teammates who fell short in Tokyo.
