Team USA's gymnastics roster for the 2024 Olympics is about to take form.

Dozens of American artistic gymnasts are vying for a select number of Paris 2024 bids at the Olympic team trials in Minneapolis.

The 36-athlete field is headlined by seven-time Olympic medalist Simone Biles, who is looking to lock down her third straight trip to the Games. Jade Carey, Jordan Chiles and Suni Lee, all of whom medaled at the pandemic-delayed 2020 Tokyo Olympics, will also be trying to retain their roster spots. Meanwhile, six-time world medalist Shilese Jones is among the top contenders seeking to break into the Olympic team.

On the men's side, Brody Malone, Yul Moldauer and Shane Wiskus are the returning members from the 2020 Olympic squad who will compete in the trials. Those aiming to break into the team include Asher Hong, Paul Juda, Fred Richard and Khoi Young, all of whom combined with Moldauer to claim team bronze at the 2023 world championships. The bronze marked the American men's first team medal at an Olympics or Worlds since 2014.
