Gymnastics superstar Simone Biles plans to return to competition at the U.S. Classic outside Chicago in early August. The meet will be Biles’ first since the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
Simone Biles is back.
Biles has taken most of the last two years off following her eventful stay in Japan, where her decision to remove herself from multiple events to focus on her mental health shifted the focus from the games themselves to the overall wellness of the athletes. The last two years have been a whirlwind of sorts. She headlined her post-Olympic tour in the fall of 2021 and married NFL player Jonathan Owens — now a defensive back for the Green Bay Packers — this spring.
Biles used the Classic as her comeback meet in 2018 following a two-year hiatus after her record medals haul in Rio de Janeiro. It took her all of two hours to show she remained the gold standard in her sport, setting the stage for another spectacular run that included two more world all-around championships in 2018 and 2019 and three more national titles.Biles courted the spotlight during her run-up to Tokyo, becoming in many ways the face of the U.S. Olympic movement.
