Abstract

Simone Biles, the 27-year-old gymnastics superstar, concluded her Olympics in Paris with three gold medals, a silver, and one event where she missed out. This has led to speculation about whether she will compete in the Los Angeles Games in 2028. Biles believes she is physically capable of doing so, but the bigger question is whether she wants to make the necessary sacrifices. Despite some setbacks in Paris, Biles remains a dominant force in her sport and has won the admiration of fans around the world. The possibility of competing in a home Olympics in the U.S. may influence her decision. [Extracted from the article]
