During the recent gymnastics event, Jordan Chiles captivated the audience with her impressive routine, which even included a nod to Beyoncé. The American fans were on their feet, waving red, white, and blue flags in support of their team. Chiles' score of 13.966 has positioned the US team close to securing another gold medal.

As Chiles awaited her score, she interacted with the crowd by blowing kisses and forming a heart shape with her hands, eliciting a thunderous roar from the spectators. Despite her stellar performance, Chiles will not be able to compete in the individual all-around finals due to Olympic regulations, making this moment even more significant for her in front of the packed arena.

Up next for the US team is the highly anticipated performance by Simone Biles on the floor exercise, serving as the final act of the evening. Biles, a renowned gymnast, is expected to deliver a show-stopping routine that will undoubtedly leave the audience in awe.
