Biles keeps 2028 LA plan open, undecided on competing

Simone Biles said she is keeping open the possibility of participating in the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics but is undecided about competing, announcing during a visit to Buenos Aires this month that she will be in the city for the Games "in some capacity." The Olympic champion delivered a speech and led a gymnastics clinic in Buenos Aires on October 6 and 8 as the city prepares to serve as World Capital of Sport in 2027.

At a conference titled The Power of Believing held at Buenos Aires City Hall, Biles said she is currently taking time away from the gym to focus on her mental health and to ensure her physical condition matches her wellbeing. "Everyone likes to talk about L.A. and what that road looks like for me," she said. "I'm not sure what 2028 looks like but I will be there at some capacity. I just don't know right now if it's on the floor or in the stands." Two days after the speech she ran a clinic at Villa Soldati Olympic Park and worked with young athletes alongside her former coach Laurent Landi.

Biles used social media to chronicle the trip, sharing images of the clinic, cultural outings and local cuisine. She captioned one post, "Going home with a full heart. Thank you...
