A radiant Simone Biles made her long-awaited Olympic return at the Paris Games on Sunday (July 28), drawing boisterous cheers and applause from an ecstatic, star-studded crowd in a performance that gave US gymnasts the lead in women's qualifying.
The world's most decorated gymnast returned for her third Olympics after she abruptly pulled out from the team final at the Tokyo Games suffering from the "twisties," a term used to describe the temporary loss of spatial awareness while performing high-difficulty elements.
But after a two-year hiatus and with the help of her teammates and a therapist, she made a glorious return in Paris in front of a crowd at the Bercy Arena that included celebrities such as Tom Cruise, Lady Gaga and Snoop Dogg, reinforcing her status of one of the greatest athletes of all-time.
