With her eyes still locked on the 2024 Summer Olympics in the French Capital, Gabby Douglas still has the opportunity to earn her spot. Her eagerly awaited comeback after a nearly eight-year hiatus was hindered after she tested positive was COVID-19. Douglas can grab her spot to compete at the sport's grandest stage in the next few months.

The 2024 Xfinity U.S. Gymnastics Championships, which will serve as the qualifying event for the upcoming Olympics, is scheduled to be held at the Dickies Arena in Fort Worth, Texas from May 30 to June 2.

The Olympian can also secure the chance at the American Classic, which will be held on May 17 and 18, 2024, at the XL Classic in Hartford, Connecticut.
