<p id=”par-6_50″>The 2024 Summer Olympics vault final will take place on Saturday, August 3 at 10:20 am Eastern Time.

If she wins again, she’ll be the second woman to ever win two Olympic vault titles. (Věra Čáslavská achieved this feat in 1964 and 1968.)</p>

<p id=”par-8_79″>Later that same morning, at 8:23 am Eastern Time, Biles will compete in the floor exercise. She won gold in this category at the 2016 Rio Olympics. A second floor gold would elevate her to a special place. Only three female gymnasts have ever won gold in the floor exercise more than once: Soviet Union’s Larisa Latynina of the Soviet Union (1956, 1960, 1964), Ágnes Keleti (1952, 1956) of Hungary, and Nellie Kim (1976, 1980) of the Soviet Union.</p>
