ANAHEIM, Calif. — Simone Biles never gave much thought to other peoples' expectations.

Until now.

The Olympic champion confirmed Saturday that she returned to the gym two weeks ago after taking the last year off. But she's hesitant to call it a comeback just yet — in large part because she knows what a frenzy it will cause.

"That's what’s the hardest point of all is everyone already has set expectations for me for my comeback before I’ve come out and said it," Biles said before she and the rest of the Final Five were inducted into the USA Gymnastics Hall of Fame.
