Simone Biles has not been on an Olympic stage since the 2020-21 Tokyo Olympics. But that will all change in a few months from now. Simone Biles will gear up to potentially claim her 8th Olympic gymnastics medal or more at the 2024 Paris Olympics, commencing from July 27 to August 5, 2024.
The hype is real, and fans can’t wait to see her do exceptionally well like she did this year. Amid the Olympic anticipation, the comeback of the seven-time Olympic medalist this year, however, drew the spotlight once again.
In a recent post on Instagram by USA Gymnastics, they shared an eight-image carousel post of the December issue of the “USAG”. The caption of the post read, “Now reading 📖” and the post featured gymnastics stars from Team USA gymnastics, including Yul Moldauer, Khoi Young, Ruben Padilla, and others who participated in the World Artistic Gymnastics in Antwerp.
But what stood out was the first slide that featured The Gymnastics GOAT under the headline “COMEBACK OF THE YEAR”. This took gymnastics fans on a nostalgic trip to the incredible year Simone Biles had, clinching victory after victory and becoming the most decorated gymnast of all time.
In 2023, Simone Biles vaulted her way back to glory, both on US soil and internationally. Right from the Core Hydration Classic to the 2023 Xfinity U.S. Gymnastics Championships to the Worlds and Pan Am Games Selection Camp, she made it to each podium and clinched gold.
At the 2023 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships, she brought home not one but four gold medals and one silver medal for the vault, making her country proud. If that’s not all, she even added “Biles II” on Vault to the FIG Code of Points.
Whether in her personal life or gymnastics career, 2023 proved to be a monumental year for Biles, who, with time and age, has only gotten better. As the Paris Olympics 2024 are soon approaching, fans can’t wait for the queen to taste Olympic glory once more.
