A trio of U.S. gymnasts have one last day to add to their collection of medals at the 2024 Olympics.

Simone Biles, with three golds already secured in Paris, will take part in both the balance beam and floor exercise finals on Monday. She’ll be be joined by teammate Suni Lee in the beam and Jordan Chiles in the floor.

Biles has a good shot to earn two more medals, which would put her at 12 total Olympic medals, second-most all-time for a female gymnast.

Lee also has three medals in these games, one gold in the team event and a pair of bronzes in the all-around and uneven bars. Both Lee and Chiles are trying for their first individual gold medals in Paris.

Regardless of how Monday’s action plays out, it’s already been a highly successful Olympics for the women’s gymnastics team. Now the U.S. is just trying to run up the score.
