In Tokyo, mental health got the best of\u00a0Simone Biles<\/a>, and many people blasted her for pulling out of the all-around competition after developing a case of the twisties.<\/p>\n

Biles ultimately withdrew from several events and did not add any gold medals to her tally.<\/p>\n

Although she went on to claim a silver medal after the rest of the team did enough to secure second place, she took major heat for apparently abandoning her team.<\/p>\n

In 2024, Simone Biles was back in a huge way.<\/p>\n

Simone Biles won her sixth Olympic gold medal, and her second in the Paris Games as she captured the women\u2019s all-around title for the second time.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

The 27-year-old returned to the summit of world gymnastics eight years after winning her first Olympic all-around title in Rio, and she did so to become the only third woman in history to earn the sport\u2019s most prestigious title more than once.<\/p>\n

After her accomplishments, Simone Biles took to social media, posting a picture of herself seemingly meditating and accompanying it with a simple but powerful message.<\/p>\n

\u201cmental health matters,\u201d Biles captioned the post.<\/p>\n

A once-in-a-lifetime athlete like Biles doesn\u2019t come around very much, especially at her age.<\/p>\n

Biles also became the oldest women\u2019s all-around Olympic champion since the Soviet Union\u2019s Maria Gorokhovskaya, who won the gold back in the 1959s at age 30.<\/p>\n

Will Simone Biles Return To Olympics At Age 31?<\/h2>\n

Simone Biles entered the 2024 Olympics looking to further her resume as the greatest gymnast of all time, and she accomplished that feat.<\/p>\n

It doesn\u2019t appear that the 27-year-old Biles is slowing down, but her age is typically considered an older age for a gymnast.<\/p>\n

It has led many to wonder whether 2024 would be Biles\u2019 last Olympics.<\/p>\n

Biles hasn\u2019t yet announced whether she is planning to participate in the 2028 Olympics, but if she does, she will be 31-years-old.<\/p>\n

\u201cI would never say never, and I think that would be amazing to (do this) after every Olympic cycle,\u201d Biles said, in reference to her post-Olympics Gold Over America Tour. \u201cI think that would be a beautiful thing, she said in an interview with the\u00a0Associated Press.<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cBut right now I can\u2019t tell you yes or no. Like no definitive answers because I don\u2019t know what life will look like in the next few years to come.\u201d<\/p>\n
