BOSTON -- When Simone Biles watched video of her performance at last month’s U.S. Classic, there was really only one routine she wanted to see.

“Bars,” she said with a laugh. “To see how stupid I looked.”

The reigning Olympic champion fell off uneven bars that night, bruising her heel in the process. While that might seem like an odd thing for Biles to focus on from her first competition in almost two years – a competition she won easily, no less -- it also gives a glimpse of what will make the woman who was unbeatable during the last quadrennium even more formidable this time around.
