The Queen is back. And the 2024 Paris Games are close. simon biles will reappear on August 5 at the US Classic in Chicago, according to the United States Federation. Will be your first competition since the Tokyo Olympics, in the summer of 2021.
Biles, 26, was an Olympic champion (she has seven medals) in Rio 2016 and in Tokyo aimed to be the big star until he withdrew in the team final and withdrew from the all-around due to mental health issues. It did come out in the bar final, where it was bronze. In Japan he had to deal with ‘twisties’, the loss of spatial awareness in the air with the feeling of insecurity that the taboo subject of pressure and mental health in high competition causes and put on the table.
After Tokyo, Biles married NFL player Jonathan Owens and turned away from gymnastics. The little bomb that revolutionized your sport has not confirmed if he will try to go to Paris next summer, but the US Classic was the event that he also chose in 2018 to reappear. There he will meet Sunnisa Lee, the current Olympic champion, in a competition that serves as a prelude to the Nationals.
