Simone Biles locked up her seventh career Olympic gold medal with the help of her eponymous Yurchenko double pike during the event final at the 2024 Paris Olympics. Watch the 2024 Paris Olympics on NBC and streaming on Peacock, July 26 - Aug 11.
Many assumed that Simone Biles would retire after her Paris 'redemption tour' came to an end. But after winning her 10th Olympic medal in Saturday's vault final, Biles said for the first time that the Los Angeles Games in 2028 could be in her future. “Never say never,” Biles said. “The next Olympics is at home, so you just never know, but I am getting really old.” The Olympics will be held in L.A. in 2028, the first domestic Summer Olympics since Atlanta 1996.
At a press conference after receiving her vault medal Saturday, Biles was asked whether the world would ever see her dominate the event again. She said it would 'definitely' be the last sighting of her iconic namesake vault, the Yurchenko double pike, or “Biles II.” 'I mean, I kind of nailed that one,' Biles said. It’s the most difficult vault in the women’s rulebook and the landing that clinched the gold was the best of her performances in Paris, earning a 15.700.
