Keeping with her relaxed demeanor, Biles hasn’t explicitly said that she is seeking to compete at the Paris Olympics next summer. So, one thing at a time.”On Friday, the first night of competition, Biles was close to flawless. Biles didn’t display the double pike in warm-ups or in competition on Sunday, opting to show just one tough vault called a Cheng. Landi said that Biles stung an ankle on the skill on Friday and that there was no reason for her to repeat it just for show. The other events — uneven bars, beam and floor exercise — were quintessential Biles: incredible height and speed, and a few small hops on landings.

Simone Biles, who over the past decade has revolutionized what is possible in gymnastics, is set to compete Saturday for the first time since 2021, when she won two medals at the Tokyo Olympics but also withdrew from five events to protect her mental and physical health. Gymnastics fans have been waiting for this moment, which is widely seen as her first step toward the Paris Games in 2024. That is almost certainly because of Biles, 26, who could break multiple world and Olympic records in the next year. This meet — which serves as the last opportunity for athletes to qualify for the national championships later this month — is fielding its best lineup ever. The entrants hold a cumulative 55 medals from the Olympics and world championships, according to a tally by the podcast GymCastic.
