Simone Biles has not closed the door on a fourth Olympic appearance. The 29-year-old gymnastics icon is weighing whether to pursue another run at gold when the 2028 Summer Games are staged in Los Angeles, according to ESPN.
The prospect of performing before a home crowd carries obvious appeal for Biles, who has built her career into one of the most decorated in the sport's history. Even so, she indicated that any decision will require a full accounting of the tradeoffs and potential risks that another Olympic cycle would entail.
For local gymnastics communities and fans across the country, the uncertainty leaves open the possibility of seeing the sport's biggest name compete on American soil at an Olympics for the first time in her career. The Los Angeles Games would offer a rare home-field setting that has not been available to Biles during her previous Olympic appearances.
Biles has yet to commit either way, and no timeline for a final decision has been reported. Her choice will remain one of the most closely watched storylines in the lead-up to the 2028 Games.
