“Ready for this?”

Simone Biles certainly looked more than ready for the July Olympic Games in Paris 2024 on Saturday night (May 18), as she easily won the all-around title at the 2024 US Classic in Hartford, Connecticut.

It was Biles' first event since winning a historic sixth world gymnastics all-around crown in October.

The 27-year-old scored a 59.500 in the all-around, well ahead of Shilese Jones' 57.650. Jordan Chiles (55.450) completes the top three.

“I was just happy to be back out there. Get over those nerves again, feel that adrenaline. I can't really complain,” Biles told US broadcaster NBC afterwards.

Modest remarks from the 37-time world and Olympic medalist after recording her best all-around score since the Tokyo 2020 Games.

Reigning Olympic all-around champion Suni Lee competed in three events, all except the uneven bars, and had the best score of the competition on the balance beam (14.600). Gabby Douglas, the 2012 Olympic all-around winner, fell twice in the first rotation and withdrew from the event.

On Saturday, every move in Biles' season debut — from her daring double pike from Yurchenko to the return of her triple double on the floor moments after Taylor Swifts Ready for It blared through the speakers — drew screams from share of the near-capacity crowd at the XL Center.

She earned individual apparatus scores of 14.500, beam; 14.800, floor exercise; 15,600, safe; and 14.550, uneven bars.

But beyond the scoresheet, Biles sent a clear message that she is serious as her quest for a third Games intensifies.

Cécile Landi, Biles' coach since 2017 and a 1996 Olympian for France, says there is a marked difference in the way her star student now approaches competition.

“I don’t know if we can see it, but she’s a lot more relaxed and likes to compete and have fun,” Landi told reporters afterward. “And really, I think she's really figured out why she's doing this. And, I think for the first time ever, it's really for her.”
