Simone Biles’ recent performance at the Paris Olympics has sparked speculation about her future. On August 5, 2024, after competing in the women’s floor exercise, Biles performed what many are calling a “final salute” to the crowd. This gesture, combined with a fall during the beam event earlier, led to speculation that she might retire. Despite a stumble on the beam that placed her fifth, Biles maintained her composure and took a high difficulty score on the floor exercise. Her post-performance salute, with arms raised and a broad smile, was interpreted by some as a farewell. However, Biles clarified that she remains proud of her achievements and is at peace with her performance. The ceremony was also notable for its sportsmanship; Biles and Jordan Chiles honored gold medalist Rebeca Andrade with a bow, celebrating the diversity and talent of the competitors.
