Simone Biles said she expects the 2020 Olympics to be her final gymnastics meet, according to Reuters.

Biles plans to compete for the first time since the Rio Games at the U.S. Classic on July 29, ahead of the P&G Championships and, she hopes, the world championships in October and November.

It’s all with an eye on the 2020 Olympics, where Biles could try to become the first woman to repeat as Olympic all-around champion since Czech Vu011bra u010cáslavská in 1968.
