Shilese Jones Withdraws from U.S. Olympic Trials Due to Knee Injury

The 21-year-old gymnast's Paris 2024 hopes are dashed following a pre-event warm-up injury.

Jones was a near-lock for the U.S. team after winning six world championship medals in two years.
She injured her knee during vault warm-ups, leading to her withdrawal from the trials.
Despite the injury, Jones posted the highest score on uneven bars before exiting the competition.
Her withdrawal follows similar injuries to fellow gymnasts Skye Blakely and Kayla DiCello.
The final U.S. Olympic gymnastics team will be decided by a committee after Sunday's competition.
