Olympic gold-medallist Gabby Douglas withdrew from a U.S. championship after 8 years of being away from competition, citing an ankle injury, ending her hopes of participating in the Paris Olympics this summer.
Ms. Douglas, 28, appeared in the sports scene again this year, competing in the asymmetric bars during the U.S. Classic in Connecticut, which determines Olympic participation. She fell twice during her program and withdrew from the Classic without giving a reason.
