US women win sixth consecutive world gymnastics title, qualify for 2024 Olympics in Paris

The U.S. women are back to their winning ways. And this title comes with a trip to the Paris Olympics.

The Americans rolled to their sixth consecutive title at the world gymnastics championships Tuesday, their total of 166.564 points more than three points better than Britain (163.363 points). Canada was third at 160.563 points, winning its first-ever team medal at the world championships.

All three qualified for the 2024 Olympics, with the remaining nine teams in Paris to be decided at next year's world championships.

When the final results posted, Tokyo Olympian Jordan Chiles bent over, briefly overcome with emotion, while the rest of her teammates huddled around her in a group hug.
