Simone Biles and Team USA have already made their impact on the 2024 Paris Games, but the eight-time Olympic medalist has a chance to pick up more hardware on Thursday during the all-around final.
Biles made her highly anticipated return to the Olympic stage on Sunday and helped the United States win gold in the team final Tuesday, despite appearing to tweak her calf during warm-ups on the floor exercise during qualifiers. Biles has more Olympic medals than any American gymnast in history.

2024 Olympic medals: Who is leading the medal count? Follow along as we track the medals for every sport.
Simone Biles and Team USA are idle on Wednesday. The next women's gymnastics event scheduled at the 2024 Paris Games is the all-around final Thursday.
Simone Biles will compete in the all-around final and the finals for vault, balance beam and floor exercise. Suni Lee joins Biles in the all-around competition. Jordan Chiles missed the all-around final due to the two-per-country rule.
Allyson Felix is the only non-swimmer and American woman who has more Olympic medals than Biles (11). The female with the most medals is Larisa Latynina, whose 18 Olympic medals are the most by any female athlete or gymnast. Latynina, who won nine golds, competed for the Soviet Union at the 1956, 1960 and 1964 Olympics.
