Simone Biles is poised to make a stunning comeback during the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris. The gymnastics superstar is a favorite to dominate the gymnastics finals, including the all-around, vault and floor events.
Biles is making her third Olympic appearance after the "twisties," a phenomenon where gymnasts lose their place in the air, forced her to drop out of multiple events during the Tokyo Olympics. Biles earned one bronze medal that year, and has seven total Olympic medals.
Since then, Biles has set multiple records, taking home her sixth world all-around title in 2023. She's the most decorated gymnast in history, having earned 37 medals across the world championships and the Olympics and nine all-around national titles. Biles also has five moves named after her.
