Reigning world champion Simone Biles will become the fourth American woman gymnast to compete in three Olympic Games after placing first in the all-around competition at the 2024 U.S. Olympic Gymnastics Trials Sunday in Minneapolis.

Simone Biles competes in the floor exercise on Day Four of the 2024 U.S. Olympic Team Gymnastics Trials at Target Center on June 30 in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

On her final rotation of the night, Biles dazzled on the floor routine, which led to a standing ovation from the spectators at Target Center including from her husband Jonathan Owens, an NFL player for the Chicago Bears. She scored a 14.725 to solidify her win in the competition. When asked about becoming the oldest American woman gymnast since the 1950s to head to the Olympics, Biles laughed and said she knew she “wasn’t done” after Tokyo.
