Eight-Year Hiatus Ends as Douglas Prepares for Return
Three-time Olympic champion Gabby Douglas has announced her return to competitive gymnastics after an eight-year hiatus. The 2012 Olympic all-around champion made the announcement on Thursday, setting her sights on the 2024 Olympics in Paris.
Douglas, who became the first Black woman to win the individual all-around competition at the Olympics, will be making her return under the guidance of renowned coach Kittia Carpenter. The gymnast had previously retired from the sport in 2016 after competing in the Rio Olympics.
Douglas's return to gymnastics has been met with both excitement and skepticism. Some have questioned her ability to return to competition at a high level after such a long absence. However, Douglas remains determined to prove her critics wrong and reclaim her spot among the world's best gymnasts.
