]]> Simone Biles continued her successful comeback in gymnastics by dominating the Core Hydration Classic at XL Center in Hartford, Connecticut. The world champion won the all-around event title over Shilese Jones and Jordan Chiles with an impressive score of 59.500.

Three black gymnasts stood on the podium for the all-around medals with Simone Biles (gold), Shilese Jones (silver), and Jordan Chiles (bronze) at the Core Hydration Classic.

Biles’ performance included exceptional skills on the floor exercise and vault, showcasing her readiness for the upcoming Olympics in Paris. She scored 14.550 on the balance beam, 15.600 during her Yurchenko double pike vault, and 14.550 on her uneven bars routine.

Shilese Jones had the highest score on the uneven bars with a 15.250, proving she could be the U.S. favorite to compete for an individual gold medal at the Olympics.

Biles’ victory underscores why she’s a favorite to reclaim her all-around title in Paris this summer. She will represent the United States at the 2024 Olympics with Shilese Jones, Skye Blakely, Joscelyn Roberson, Leanne Wong, and alternate Kayla DiCello.

 

Former Olympic champion Gabby Douglas, 28, withdrew from the competition after falling twice on the uneven bars event for a score of 10.100. 

 

Biles’ win not only marks a strong showing in her tune-up events but also sets the stage for her to face the world competitors in the Olympics.
