The 24-year-old will be competing in the beam final on Tuesday at the Tokyo Olympics, USA Gymnastics has confirmed.

The Arizona gymnast won silver in vault at the 2021 U.S. National Championships, finishing behind Simone Biles.

The Olympic gold medalist has yet to decide whether she will compete in the floor and balance beam finals.

"Simone Biles has more than enough going on without her sexual assault being turned into a cheap punch line," a Twitter user wrote in response to Che's jokes.

There are some people out there calling Simone Biles a quitter. That is not what she did. She made the best decision for the team and has since revealed she had "the twisties." When you're lost in the air, sheer panic goes through your whole body. I've definitely had it.

Sunisa Lee, whose parents emigrated from Laos, is the first-ever Hmong American Olympic gymnast and gold medalist.

"For anyone saying I quit, I didn't quit," Biles wrote on Instagram. "My mind and body are simply not in sync."

The champion gymnast posted on Instagram stories on Friday morning to answer followers' questions and offer more details about her withdrawal from the Tokyo 2020 Olympics.

The "Saturday Night Live" has been condemned for making fun of the gymnast who withdrew from the Tokyo Olympics for mental health reasons.

"Being the best also means knowing how to take care of yourself. We are inspired by her leadership today and are behind her every step of the way," Athleta said.

"Awesome Dawesome" opens up about Biles pulling out of the Olympics and her own efforts to change the culture of gymnastics.

Simone Biles, the most decorated gymnast in history, has pulled out of two gymnastics finals at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games.

Carey finished ninth in qualifying but will replace Biles in the all-around final after the four-time Olympic champion withdrew.

"If you're not ready for the big time, we've got thousands of young gymnasts that would love to take your place," the conservative activist said of Biles, the most decorated U.S. gymnast of all time.

Athletes are increasingly taking ownership of their bodies, even at the risk of disappointing millions of adoring fans, sponsors and coaches.

"We're going to take it day by day, and we're just going to see," Biles said of her potential return to competition this week.

The exact circumstances surrounding Biles' withdrawal remain unclear. However, earlier this week the gymnast spoke of the mounting pressure she felt to perform.

"If it wasn't for her, we wouldn't be here where we are right now," said Jordan Chiles in support of Simone Biles.

"Kids need strong role models not this nonsense," Morgan tweeted after Simone Biles withdrew from the Olympic gymnastics team final.

"Coming here to the Olympics and being the head star isn't an easy feat," Simone Biles told Today after her exit from the women's gymnastics team competition.

In the end, the Russian team beat the Americans by 3.5 points, a significant margin in gymnastics.

"We're gonna take it day by day, and we're just gonna see," Biles said about competing in the individual women's gymnastics event.

The Russians performed "brilliantly" reported the newspaper Komsomolskaya Pravda over the victory at the Tokyo Olympics.

The 24-year-old Biles dropped out after faltering on her opening vault. USA Gymnastics said she was pulling out "due to a medical issue."

Jordan Chiles stepped in to replace Simone Biles, who was pulled from the team gymnastic finals following a vault event.

News of Biles' exit is circulating on social media where Team USA fans are sharing their disappointment for the gymnast and her team.
