Additionally, during her June 28 routine, she included Travis Scott’s song 'Delresto (Echoes)', featuring Beyonce, helping her secure the top position in the women's qualifying rounds despite some challenges on the balance beam.

At the conclusion of the event, the men's and women's 2024 gymnastics teams were named and are now ready to head to Paris for the 2024 Summer Games.
