For the first time ever, Olympic all-around gold medalists Simone Biles, Suni Lee and Gabby Douglas will compete against each other in the 2024 Core Hydration Classic. The competition is the final qualifying event for the 2024 Xfinity U.S. Gymnastics Championships.
The Xfinity U.S. Gymnastics Championships serve as USA Gymnastics' annual national championships, scheduled for May 30-June 2 in Fort Worth, Texas. That's where the national team roster slated to compete at the U.S. Olympic team trials in Minneapolis will be finalized.
Other athletes in the Core Hydration Classic field include World vault gold medalist Jade Carey, Olympic and World medalist Jordan Chiles and six-time and four-time World medalists Shilese Jones and Leanne Wong.
The Core Hydration Classic is Biles' first competition of the 2024 season. Lee, who won three medals in Tokyo, and Douglas, who in 2012 became the first U.S. gymnast to win gold in both the individual all-around and team competitions, join Biles on the quest for a ticket to Paris.
Here is everything you need to know about the 2024 Core Hydration Classic, including how to watch the meet.
