Simone Biles returns Monday for back-to-back event finals to finish off the last day of gymnastics at the Paris Olympics.
The American superstar will compete Monday in the balance beam final at 6:38 a.m. ET and then in the floor final at 8:23 a.m. ET. Both events can be streamed live through Peacock or NBCOlympics.com.
Biles already has the most Olympic medals of any American gymnast ever as she looks to add two more to her already record-setting collection. She has already won three medals so far in Paris – gold in the team final, all-around final and vault final.
Biles secured first place in the floor exercise during the qualification round, finishing a comfortable 0.7 points ahead of second-place qualifier and all-around silver medalist Rebeca Andrade. Biles previously won gold in the floor final in Rio, ahead of former teammate Aly Raisman, but withdrew from the event in Tokyo after experiencing a case of the "twisties”.
Biles has two Olympic beam medals to her name – bronze in Rio and Tokyo – and will aim for a third consecutive podium finish.

American teammate Suni Lee, who won bronze in the Paris all-around final, will join Biles in the beam final. Biles’ Team USA and World Champions Center teammate Jordan Chiles will compete alongside her in the floor final.
The men’s parallel bars and high bar finals will also take place Monday, but no American gymnasts qualified for either event.

Simone Biles medals at Paris Olympics
The 2024 Paris Games mark Biles' third Olympics and her first Olympic appearance since she withdrew from several events at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021 due to "the twisties." Here's how she's fared:
- Team final: Biles led the U.S. women's gymnastics team to a gold medal in the team final. It was Biles' fifth Olympic gold medal and her eighth overall.
- Women's all-around final: Biles edged out Brazil's Rebeca Andrade for gold in the all-around final to become the oldest all-around Olympic champion since 1952. Biles is also just the third woman to win all-around twice, and the first to do it eight years apart.
- Vault final: Biles captured her third gold medal of these Games. Andrade won silver, her third medal of these Games. Biles' teammate Jade Carey won bronze, her second medal here and third of her career.
- Balance beam final: Monday, Aug. 5; 6:38 a.m. ET. An Olympic gold medal on the balance beam has eluded Biles so far. She has two bronze medals on the beam, the first at the 2016 Rio Olympics and second at the 2021 Tokyo Games.
- Floor final: Monday, Aug. 5; 8:23 a.m. ET. Biles won gold in the floor exercise at the 2016 Rio Olympics. Soviet Union's Larisa Latynina (1956, 1960, 1964), Hungary's Ágnes Keleti (1952, 1956) and Soviet Union's Nellie Kim (1976, 1980) are the only female gymnasts to win multiple Olympic gold medals in the floor exercise.
