Simone Biles, the most decorated gymnast in history, has told CNN’s Amanda Davies it's “50-50" as to whether she'll compete at the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles, saying her mental health will be one of the key factors in her decision-making. In an interview at the recent Laureus World Sports Awards in Madrid, the 11-time Olympic medalist reflected on her experience of ’the twisties’ at the Tokyo Games in 2021, acknowledging it marked a pivotal moment in opening up the global conversation on mental health and helping her to "get the therapy that I deserved” — something she's still undertaking to this day. Biles is also now embracing the world of American Football, thanks to her husband Jonathan Owens who recently signed a one-year contract with the Indianapolis Colts.
