Simone Biles distanced herself from gymnastics after Tokyo Olympics 2020. Taking a step back from sports for 2 years due to the twisties, she immersed herself in therapy. Despite being wary, she gradually resumed training in Texas for the Paris Olympics 2024. Furthermore, the announcement of her comeback was met with a wave of negativity. However, at the U.S. Classics in Chicago, the 7-time Olympics Gold medalist silenced doubts, proving her rightful claim as the GOAT of gymnastics. 

Emerging victorious with gold, her unmatched prowess in beam and floor exercises led her to be crowned the all-around champion at Now Arena. On her social media platform, Biles expressed heartfelt gratitude to all those who unwaveringly believed in her journey.
