#How to watch Simone Biles go for Olympic gold — again

Simone Biles rose to stardom and became a household name with her performance at the Rio Olympics in 2016, where she won four gold medals and one bronze medal.

The gymnast, now 24, took home gold by scoring a 15.9 in the vault final, a 15.96 in the floor exercise event, and a total score of 62.19 in the all-around event. She earned bronze in the balance beam event with a score of 14.73, and that was with a half-point reduction for touching the beam.

Now, she will look to smash her records and attempt to gain more hardware as she competes in Tokyo. It will be her second Olympic appearance, but maybe not her last. Biles has hinted at potentially putting off her retirement to compete in the 2024 Paris Olympics.

The Columbus, Ohio-born athlete can cement herself into the history books at the Tokyo Games. Biles needs just one more gold medal to become the oldest American woman to win the all-around and two more medals to tie Shannon Miller as the most decorated Olympics gymnast of all time. But if she wins three, Biles would become the most decorated Olympic gymnast in history.

Biles has also been able to win gold medals in the World Artistic Gymnastics Championship. In 2019, she received gold in the team, all-around, balance beam, vault, and floor exercise events as well. Biles has a total of 25 medals throughout her participation in the World Championship. She holds 19 gold medals, three silvers, and three bronzes.

The Olympian’s journey will start on July 25, when the US team will attempt to qualify for the Women’s team final.

Here is how to watch the superstar and Team USA, compete for gold.
