Chance for a medal record: Biles leads the US World Cup team

class=”sc-29f61514-0 icZBHN”>

Simone Biles, 26, will compete in her sixth World Championships almost two months after her successful comeback after a two-year break from competition, which is a record for an American gymnast. For the 26-year-old, the return to the Belgian port city is something special: as a 16-year-old she won the first of five world titles in the all-round there ten years ago.
