The Paris Olympics 2024 is just 5 months away. In this vicinity, the George R. Brown Convention Center in Texas flaunted Jordan Chiles not in her competitive mood, but as a motivation to others. The 22-year-old artistic gymnast showed up as a guest in the Simone Biles Invitational. There, all she could do was share tips and tricks with the teenage gymnasts and spend the time with her gymnastic compatriot in a light mood. In a situation like this, the Olympics topic was bound to come up. Eventually, that did happen. 

For the Olympics platform, Jordan Chiles is not new. But this time, she had something to tell about the French metropolis or culture. Eventually, that ignited other gymnasts to share their thoughts on the Paris Olympics 2024.

The Simone Biles Invitational gathered gymnasts like Jordan Chiles, Joscelyn Roberson, Zoe Miller, and Tiana Sumanasekera in the same frame. There, Spot Gym captured them in their leisure to ask them their wish for the upcoming Paris Olympics 2024. The topic revolved around the fun-filled mood as the artistic gymnasts shared their likings on the 2024 Olympic destination. The 1:59-length interview went to YouTube with the caption, “What do the US Gymnast know about France ?” Being the veteran one, Jordan Chiles went with the French onion soup as her favorite French food. Being from a different mindset, Tiana Sumanasekera voted for Escargot as her desire for French cuisine. Soon after that, others from the pack came into revelation in sharing their wish. 

Joscelyn Roberson kept things simple and went with popsicles. But when asked about if they knew any French word, Roberson came out to be a clear winner. The teenage gymnast uttered long sentences in French. Kaliya Lincoln tried to go at the same length as well. But both Skye Blakely and Jordan Chiles named “Bonjour” as their most known one from the French etymology. On this estimate, the elite gymnasts would wish to remain in the same color as well when the Paris Olympics 2024 will be at the corner. Their preparations gave out a few insights.
