Simone Biles Says 2028 Olympic Decision Remains Open as She Takes a Reset

She expects to be present at the Los Angeles Games in some role even if she does not compete.

Overview

  • Speaking at the Ready25 Conference in Sydney, Biles said she has not decided on a 2028 return and is taking time off to reset mentally, physically and emotionally.
  • She noted that an Olympic push demands four years of preparation, significant sacrifices and coordination with those around her.
  • Biles indicated the Yurchenko double pike she performed in Paris will be her final competitive attempt of that vault.
  • Reporting states she has no competitions scheduled for 2025 following her Paris Olympics performances.
  • A comeback in Los Angeles would give her a chance to tie Larisa Latynina’s record for most Olympic golds by a gymnast, as Biles holds 11 Olympic medals, including seven golds.
