Simone Biles Returns to Olympics: A Journey of Growth and Triumph
Simone Biles, widely regarded as one of the greatest gymnasts of all time, is set to compete in the women’s gymnastics team final at the 2024 Paris Olympics on Tuesday. The event, scheduled to begin at 12:15 p.m. ET, marks a welcome return to the world’s biggest stage for Biles, who withdrew from the last Olympics in Tokyo just before the team finals due to an injury and a case of the "twisties," a mental block that prevents athletes from performing at their best.
Since then, Biles has undergone an incredible journey of growth, overcoming her mental block to regain her confidence and skill on the gymnastics floor. Now, she’s back and better than ever, expected to compete in the all-around, vault, floor, and beam events.
Biles’ return to the Olympics is a big deal, and fans are eagerly anticipating her performance. For those who want to catch the action, there are a few ways to watch. Tune into NBC starting at 12:15 p.m. ET, or stream the broadcast on Peacock if you have the platform. If you have a cable log-in with NBC, you can also stream most events on the network’s Olympics website.
The competition will reair on NBC’s prime-time broadcast of the 2024 Paris Olympics, starting at 8 p.m. ET. Make sure to mark your calendars and get ready to witness the incredible talent of Simone Biles as she takes to the gymnastics floor once again.
