USA Gymnastics has confirmed Simone Biles will return to competition in Tokyo for the balance beam finals on Tuesday.
“We are so excited to confirm that you will see two U.S. athletes in the balance beam final tomorrow — Suni Lee AND Simone Biles!! Can’t wait to watch you both!” USA Gymnastics said in a statement.
The six-time Olympic medalist has been dealing with a mental block that in gymnastics is referred to as “the twisties," or having trouble figuring out where her body is in relation to the ground when in the air.
Wishing Simone Biles and the rest of Team USA the best of luck!
