going to the locker room. Something happens? What's going on? Have you been injured? When she returns, already wearing a bathrobe, her teammates from the United States team form a huddle and she informs them that she will no longer compete, that she will be replaced by Jordan Childs on the uneven bars, and that the balance beam and the I usually.

seems lost, but ... What will happen to the individual events? It is not known, nor are the reasons for Biles' withdrawal.
As soon as this Tuesday the great star of these Tokyo Games returned to the pavilion, speculation began about the reasons for his withdrawal. In principle, due to a small bandage on his right leg, there was talk of an injury, a problem in the tendons, but that theory vanished when the competition returned. Biles's teammates,
Childs
,
Sunisa Lee
and
Grace McCullum were
finishing an exercise and she was clapping, jumping, jumping. Without using ice at any time or undergoing any other type of treatment, the physical damage seemed out of the question so ... According to
NBC
, Biles withdrew due to anxiety.
The only certain thing is that he only made one movement, a jump of the colt, and this one was really disappointing.

Is something wrong? But what is it? Have you been injured?
All questions remain open.
