Team USA dominated during the women's gymnastics team final at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
On Tuesday (July 30), Simone Biles and her teammates Suni Lee, Jordan Chiles, Jade Carey, and Hezly Rivera won gold in the team final.
Despite tweaking her calf in Sunday's (July 28) qualifying round, Biles dazzled in all four events in the team final, all-around, vault, floor, and beam. Tuesday's win marks Biles' eighth Olympic medal, making her the most decorated American gymnast of all time.
Chiles also competed in all four events while Lee competed in the all-around, beam, and bars and Carey on the vault.
Team USA capped off the women's gymnastics team final with a score of 171.296. Italy took home the silver medal while Brazil earned bronze.
The crowd, which included stars Serena Williams, Spike Lee, Bill Gates, and more, stood on its feed chanting “U-S-A” as Biles' floor routine finished off Team USA's dominant performance in the team final.
Following team competition, the focus will now shift to the individual finals, which are scheduled to begin on Thursday (August 1).
Biles has a chance to earn four more medals at the Paris games as she is set to compete in the all-around, vault, beam, and floor final. Lee will also compete in the all-around along with the beam and bars. Chiles will make a run in the floor final, and Carey will compete in the vault.
