One of the greatest Olympians is back where she belongs, as Simone Biles officially secured a spot on Team USA for the Paris Olympics after winning the all-around at the Olympic qualifiers on Sunday.

Biles shared her excitement to be heading to Paris and her husband, Chicago Bears veteran Jonathan Owens, voiced his support for the superstar gymnast on social media:

WE ARE GOING TO PARIS

Biles had a few slip-ups on the beam and the vault, but she secured the all-around victory with yet another breathtaking floor routine that earned a score of 14.275 and gave her a final two-day score of 117.225.

The 27-year-old is now the first American female gymnast to qualify for three Olympic teams since Dominique Dawes. She is also the oldest female gymnast to compete for Team USA since 1952.

Fans on social media were blown away by Biles' continued greatness, as she appears poised to add to her seven career Olympic medals:

Okay but real talk, how long would it take Simone Biles to figure out how to dunk if she really focused on it? <a href="https://t.co/tYKeaRbiO3">https://t.co/tYKeaRbiO3</a>

Biles' return to the world stage comes after she withdrew from the Tokyo Olympics in 2021 to focus on her mental health after experiencing a case of the "twisties." After winning the Olympic trials on Sunday, she credited weekly therapy as part of the reason she was able to make it back to this point.

After making her third Olympic team, Simone Biles reflects on her return to gymnastics and the importance of being a mentor and a leader. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/USAGTrials24?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#USAGTrials24</a> <a href="https://t.co/oMRivtCQeP">pic.twitter.com/oMRivtCQeP</a>

A four-time Olympic gold medalist, Biles is motivated to deliver another strong performance as she leads Team USA to Paris next month. It will be a treat to watch her add to her legacy once again.
