Five U.S. gymnasts will participate in the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro next month, and are expecting to win plenty of gold—the U.S. team has not lost an international competition in six years. The new team has returning medalists and Olympic newcomers, including three-time world all-around champion Simone Biles.
The gymnasts will head to a 10-day training camp in Texas before traveling to Brazil. With their track record, they are set to become the first U.S. women’s gymnastics team to win gold in consecutive Olympics.
